As 2012 begins it is a good time to review our online shop and current fair traded world gifts. As a result it is currently not fully active or currently processing orders. We look forward to its relaunch in the spring.

Our events for 2012 will be available soon but follow us on Twitter so you can find out where we shall be during this coming year. We will be bringing along some of our clearance ranges to make way for a fresh new selection of hand crafted fair traded world gifts.

Don’t worry, our popular and favourite ranges will remain including Nkuku’s hand painted metal cups, trays and bowls and our delightful soft toys and puppets from Kenya.

Finally, a new year and a new address. See our website for details or contact us.

The next few weeks will find us at several interesting venues as the thoughts turn to gifts for young and young at heart.

Burford Bazaar, Warriner School & Thorngrove School Gift Fairs, The School of St Helen & Katherine, Abingdon & Sobell Hospice Christmas Fairs at Radley College and the Face of Henley Christmas Fair…then into London!

Leather covered hand made animals from India, Raku Pottery from South Africa and our Kenana selection from Kenya are among the ranges which will give you a hand made fair traded gift this Christmas.

Beautifully hand painted hanging decorations from Kashmir are proving very popular this year…come along and see them at one of our next events.

As temperatures drop the fair traded lolita and eva cup, bowl, jug & tray range  are great for gift ideas for young and not so young.Food safe stainless steel available in 8 colourways – stocks permitting – can be used as style setting picnic containers or as a container for any indoor purpose.

Our customers find these hand painted decorative bird designs are great in the bathroom for your toothbrush, in the lounge for evening snacks or in the craft studio for your pencils or brushes. We have a selection of matching bauble hanging decorations in some of the popular colour combinations.

Any orders received after 17th July 2011 will not be dispatched  until mid August due to our summer holiday period. We will contact you to confirm your order and delivery arrangements.

Thank you for shopping with Alexina Law.

Fair Trade Fortnight  is 28th February- 13th March 2011.

 
Like the FairTrade Foundation you will find many companies and organisations promoting Fair Trade products especially during this time. Buying Fair Trade products is much more than buying FairTrade bananas or coffee. The FairTrade Fortnight gives an opportunity to raise awareness of the United Nation’s Millenium Development Goals….by providing sustainable work to communities around the globe helping to reduce hunger and poverty. 

 Improved education to men, women & children and access to healthcare services will help improve maternal health and in turn lower rates of child mortality. Education can also help target reduction in aids, malaria and other diseases.

Buy fair trade products wherever you can. Support the producers in countries around the world to enable them to develop global & sustainable partnerships.

 Further information on the Millenium Development Goals can be found on the UK’s  DFID global issues pages and the United Nations basic facts page.
