A MEETING will take place tomorrow to decide whether to try to make Richmond a Fair Trade Town.
The meeting, hosted by the Richmond Justice and Peace group, will take place in the Methodist Hall, in Dundas Street, at 7.30pm. Speakers will spell out the steps to be taken for the town to qualify for Fair Trade status and find out what support there is for the move.
The Justice and Peace group has campaigned for food producers in the developing world to receive a fair price for their products.
