All Roads Lead to Hull

Celebrating its 20th birthday as a Fairtrade City, roads leading into Hull will be marked with a Fairtrade sign.

Priory Way, Hessle Road, Boothferry Road, Anlaby Road, Priory Road, Bricknell Avenue, Endike Lane, Raich Carter Way, Wawne Road and Ganstead Lane are the chosen locations for the signs.

Hull City councillor Julia Conner states that “Hull has shown ongoing support for fairtrade for 20 years, challenging unfair trade practices and making a stand for decent workers’ rights, safer working conditions and fairer pay for farmers and workers globally.”

We have known for some time that all roads lead to Hull but now they will be marked with a Fairtrade sign.

Mark Dawson of Fairtrade Yorkshire commented “the signs are a visible symbol of the commitment of the City of Hull to fairness and justice for those who produce the goods that we all enjoy.”
