We would like to
welcome you to the Monday Morning Coffee Stop at Heathervale Christian
Centre. We aim to provide a comfortable and relaxed environment for
everyone.
It is run on a not for
profit basis by volunteers who are keen to serve the community in this
way. We would also like to introduce you to the wide range of
activities held here which are for young and old alike.
At the same time we
also wish to help people in developing countries in a very practical way
by serving and selling Fairtrade products.
What is Fairtrade?
Fairtrade is about better prices, decent working conditions, local
sustainability, and fair terms of trade for farmers and workers in the
developing world. By requiring companies to pay above market prices,
Fairtrade addresses the injustices of conventional trade, which
traditionally discriminates against the poorest, weakest producers. It
enables them to improve their lot and have more control over their
lives.
