Fair Trade Way launched

New national trail takes in Quaker history

by Symon Hill 4th March 2011

Quakers in the north-west of England are at the centre of a plan to launch the ‘Fair Trade Way’ as a long-distance footpath this week. The eighty-five mile route begins at Garstang, which became the UK’s first Fairtrade town in 2000, and finishes at Keswick.
