Friendly footie

Fairtrade footballs are making their way into Zambian prisons with the help of Martin Schweiger, of Leeds Meeting.

He writes: ‘Sport is a good starting point for many to improve their lives and the welfare of their families. The picture shows some fairtrade footballs I have been able to send. The problem of footballs being made in exploitative conditions has encouraged me to source and send fairtrade footballs.’
