Did you know that the world’s 48 poorest nations (1/4 of the world’s population) make less money than the world’s three richest people?
See the Flipside is about young people thinking differently about where they spend their hard earned money.
Click on the see the flipside link to find out more about flip and what we do.
If you want to get involved with flip there are loads of things that you can do:
• Open a Traidcraft tuck shop and get a 20% discount on your first order of over £300.
OR
• If you like the sound of opening a tuck shop but don’t want to spend £300, you can get a 20% discount off the Healthy Eating Flipkit and the Tuckshop Flipkit.
You can get the application form for these deals
Here.
Opening a Traidcraft shop really is very simple- you just buy your order (whatever size- big or small), get a table and start selling at your local youth group, church or wherever. You just need someone over 18 to manage your Traidcraft account!
Remember, everything that you sell will be flipping around other people’s lives across the globe. You don’t even have to sell all of your stock- if you buy it, you can give away all of the goods and you will still be making a difference to people’s lives.
If you have a group of young people who want to make a difference in fighting poverty by buying and promoting fair trade goods, then send off to us for the Flipside promotional pack.
The pack contains:
• A booklet full of games and awareness material
• A registration and order form for your group so you can start selling fair trade goods.
• A special offer form
• Some free Flipside coasters (For use in a local youth café or church café)
• Some free Flip book marks (for use in books)

We completely support your movement! A common myth we often hear is that if third world countries were allowed to advance it would be an environmental disaster - This is not so! Countries with wealth can afford to clean up their water after fouling it, replant their forrests and put recycling infrastructure into place! Prosperity for one and all! Check out our profile and blogs please! :)
Hello, welcome and Bonjour to the MySpace ! Please good folks who read this site and message - support the new perspective and get on board. In the words of Ghandi - "think about the least, the most oppressed, the weakest in this world - then you'll know what to do". Peace - Gareth
