A FAIR trade shop has celebrated its 30th birthday.
Gateway World Shop, which is situated within St Nicholas’ Church, on Durham Market Place, sells Fair Trade foods and fairly traded gifts and crafts.
It is run by a board of Christian trustees and regularly donates funds to food and gift suppliers which also undertake educational work in countries across the globe.
To celebrate the anniversary, shop staff served cakes made with Fairtrade ingredients to members of St Nicholas’ Church and shared a birthday cake.
The shop is a member of the British Association for Fair Trade Shops.
