Fairtrade Fortnight 2025

Do it Fair this Fairtrade Fortnight
This Fairtrade Fortnight will be taking place 22 September – 05 October 2025. Over these fourteen days we’ll be asking each of you to Do it Fair.

We’ll be celebrating the difference we can all make when we choose Fairtrade and campaign as part of a UK-wide movement calling for a fairer system behind the things we consume every day.?

With the world in a tailspin,? fairness isn’t a given.? But the power to get there is in our hands.? Together, our actions can have a positive impact? on real people’s lives.? Fairer pay. Fairer treatment. Fairer futures.? That’s Fairtrade.? It’s not just a label – it’s a movement.? So, whatever you do,? and however you do it:? Do it Fair.

As part of Fairtrade Fortnight, we’re asking the UK government to Brew it Fair. Like all of us, the people growing and picking our tea deserve to be able to plan for their futures, and to protect themselves from the impacts of climate change. Take action by signing our petition and asking your MP to Brew it Fair.
