Burgess Hill has been a Fairtrade Town since 2006 and actively promotes Fairtrade in the town by working with Schools, Churches and other organisations.

We have regular meetings where we plan activities and put on a full programme of events during Fairtade Fortnight.

With management and staff at Waitrose, Burgess Hill with a basket of Fairtrade goodies during Fairtrade Fortnight 2011.

By being a Fairtrade Town, Burgess Hill is showing its commitment to producers and developers in developing countries. The aims of the Fairtrade Town group is to raise the profile of the Fairtrade mark in the town by encouraging more retail outlets, cafes, business organisations, and consumers to stock and buy Fairtrade goods. By doing this the town is helping to change the livees of farmers in developing countries.

There is an amazing range of  Fairtrade products on the market and most of them are available in Burgess Hill. Check out our directory to see what you can buy and where.
