Yorkshire’s newest Fairtrade Village
Embsay with Eastby is the most recent place in Yorkshire to gain Fairtrade status. Local resident, Liz Roodhouse worked with the Parish Council and the church and community groups in the village to make Fairtrade Embsay with Eastby a reality. There is now a village Fairtrade Steering Group composed of enthusiastic local supporters. The village celebrated its Fairtrade status with a Fairtrade breakfast on 22nd May.
