fairtrade fortnight...
Sunday, February 25, 2007
Tomorrow is the first day of the UK's fairtrade fortnight (26 February – 11 March). The theme for this year's fortnight is: "CHANGE TODAY. CHOOSE FAIRTRADE. (Munch it! Wear It! Taste it! Choose it!)" The website blurb describes the aim of the fortnight in this way..."Change Today. Choose Fairtrade, is an urgent call to people in the UK to engage with the Fairtrade Foundation’s vision of an even bigger movement for positive change on unfair trade, including making the switch to buying Fairtrade."

I'm Malcolm Chamberlain
from Liverpool, United Kingdom
. I'm married with two young children and, in addition to Liverpool, have lived in Leicester (for the first 18 years of my life), York, Peshawar (Pakistan), Oxford and Walsall. I've been actively involved in the emerging church since 2001, as a founding member of Dream in Liverpool City, and coordinator of the Dream network. I'm currently engaged in research into emerging missional communities, and work as a parish priest and pioneer minister.
