Global Awareness Group
This group has been active in many areas of modern ethical concern, including fairtrade goods and global education, for example the 'Send my friend to school' campaign and the subsequent 'My friend needs a teacher' campaign. The group is trying to make the school a 'fairtrade school' by encouraging fairtrade use within the school.
The group visited London with Nigel Waterson MP.
