The launch of Fair Trade gold happened on monday. I'm pleased to say it attracted a bit of press coverage and that we have already signed a couple up to having their engagement ring made in Fair Trade gold!
We are one of the first twenty companies to be helping the Fairtrade Foundation launch Licenced Fair Trade gold and its been a learning curve for all of us - exciting times ahead as we try to get as many of our customers signed up as possible.
Alice, Jenna and I attended the press launch of Fair Trade gold last week which was a very emotional morning with miners from South America explaining exactly how much this will mean to them.
Here are a few photos from the occasion:
