The Fairtrade Fortnight is an annual promotional campaign organised by the Fairtrade Foundation, which will be spanning 25th February to 9th March. During this time the A2 Business Group will be hosting a range of non-profit activities and events to promote Fairtrade over the two week period.

The main aim of the 9 students will be to promote Fairtrade amongst the local community and Woodroffe School, and to encourage the local community and students to make small changes in their everyday lives by choosing Fairtrade products when they shop, to trigger a positive change in people’s lives in developing countries.

To raise awareness of this issue, the group will be organising a wine tasting evening, with support from the Co-op and Clipper Teas. There will be various Fairtrade wines for members of the public to taste, and a Fairtrade related quiz, with prizes. There will also be a number of other events running within school for all the students to get involved with, including Fairtrade football
tournaments and Fairtrade smoothie and chocolate making.

The wine evening will be on 28th February from 7.00 PM, and tickets are available from the Woodroffe reception at £6 per person

One-day voluntary conservation task to improve the habitat of the Axmouth to Lyme Regis Undercliffs National Nature Reserve  for Natural England
 "Work may include scrub clearance, path making, and/or creation of a pond. 
   
We're hoping that it will be a great opportunity for volunteers to meet new people, learn new skills, learn more about the area and its special flora, fauna and geology, and get a fantastic sense of satisfaction from a job well done! As a result of the day, any participants who are interested to become involved with the site in the longer term would be warmly encouraged! Participants do not need to have any special skills, but do need to be physically fit.
 
As you may be aware, the area is a haven for butterflies - the Dingy Skipper has been recorded here, and it's an excellent spot to watch Silver-washed Fritillaries (not that we'll see them in March!). The grasslands hold Early Purple Orchid, Greater Butterfly Orchid, Pyramidal Orchid, Bee Orchid and Common Spotted Orchid.
