get first class products. They will also have the satisfaction of knowing that all their purchases come from producers who pay fair wages and do not exploit their workers or use child labour. In this way, shoppers play a direct part in helping to fight poverty. And every sale raises funds for Jubilee Campaign’s work to help Children at Risk. We’re delighted with this brilliant new partnership.”

The new online shop offers a wide selection of clothing, jewellery, household items, crafts, garden accessories and creative gift ideas. To access the shop, go to www.jubileecampaign.co.uk
