Title: Fairtrade chocolate

Fiona loves chocolate.

In particular, she really likes Fairtrade chocolate ... and other Fairtrade products!

Apart from the fact that it tastes so good, a major reason why Fiona enjoys it so much, is because she's visited some of the farmers in Malawi whose sugar goes into the chocolate and so has seen the difference trading fairly has made to their lives.

As well as being passionate about trading fairly, Fiona has become involved in the Make Poverty History campaign.
