Fairtrade frolicks at Mad Hatter's Artea party
5:30pm Monday 9th March 2009
Dressed in top hats and bunny ears, revellers enjoyed cakes, artwork and tea at the Mad Hatter themed ArTea Party last weekend.
The event, held at The County Arms pub in Trinity Road last Saturday, March 7, helped raise £200 for the Wandsworth Fairtrade group and was part of the annual Fairtrade Fortnight, which ended on Sunday.
All cakes were made from Fairtrade or organic ingredients and the artwork was made from recyclable materials to help promote eco awareness.
Organiser Rachel Lalchan said: “The cakes went down a treat. Everyone who came had a really good time and we helped raise money for Fairtrade.”
