At the Cow and Calf rocks
Bradford Fairtrade Zone members from Fairtrade Baildon and Fairtrade Ilkley lead a very enjoyable, sunny walk on 2nd August, on leg 5 of the Bradford District Fair Trade Way as part of the City of Culture’s “Bradford on Foot” programme.
After setting out from Burley-in-Wharfedale, the walkers arrived in Ilkley to enjoy the party atmosphere as the town’s extensive Yorkshire Day celebrations continued.
Journey’s end in Ilkley by the new sphagnum moss fountain.

Hull Fairtrade Partnership has continued to mark Hull’s 20th year of maintaining Fairtrade City status with the unveiling of a redesigned flower bed in the city centre.
The vibrant Fairtrade mark is now on display on the corner of Ferensway and Freetown Way, on the same day that Hull City Council reaffirmed its commitment to the movement.
Throughout 2025, in addition to the regular Fairtrade campaigns and events to promote the ethos of social justice that fair, ethical and sustainable trade brings, Hull Fairtrade Partnership, of which Hull City Council is an important consumer, opinion leader and key member, is linking with other initiatives to mark the milestone.
This include Great Big Green Week, a celebration of community-led action on climate change, in which the message that there is no climate justice without trade justice was reinforced.
Maintaining this momentum over two decades is a cause for celebration for Hull Fairtrade Partnership and this is the first time the city centre flowerbeds have been used to promote this.
