Good Health – at any price
December 8th, 2008Consumers here in the UK are now increasingly familiar with Fairtrade – 70% of the population recognise the Fairtrade mark, and over half of the population link it to a better deal for producers in the developing world.
While it’s good to see Fairtrade food and drink, clothing, handicrafts, etc., an article in today’s Guardian is a reminder that Fairtrade principles have a long way to go before they become the accepted way of doing business. There’s something particularly offensive about purchasing policies in the UK’s National Health Service that result in children being exploited in third world countries. Surely we can do better than that?

Hi nice post, i have come across your site once before when searching for something so i was just wondering something. I love your theme, would it happen to be a free one i can download, or is it a custom one you had made? In a few months i may get my own domain, but i don’t know how to setup themes so i don’t mind paying someone to make me a nice one and set it all up. Do you know any good Wordpress designer companies, thanks for your help.

I don’t know what themes come as standard with WordPress these days. This theme is based on the default theme from version 1.5, with a few tweaks of my own (like the image at the top of the page). There are lots of free themes available, and also companies who will write ones for you – just Google for WordPress themes.
