During the “Culture stage in the Allee” event back in June the Fairtrade Town steering group had an information stand with a number of Fairtrade products as well as information leaflets.
They also had a “Fußballtorwand” – a wall with two holes in to that you try to kick a football through. This was covered with information about how child labour is used to make sports articles.
A fairtrade football was raffled off amongst all those who had a go at getting the ball through the hole, and the winner was 11-year-old Nikolas Alt, who was presented with the football by Dr. Johannes Bickel (left) of the steering group and Mayor Hans-Georg Brum (right). Also in the photo are Nicole Schüppenhauer and Jens Gessner from the town’s environment, conservation and energy department.
About Graham Tappenden
Great job Nikolas!
I am interested in finding out how one can be a member of the Fairtrade Town steering group or when there are meetings open to the public. I am new to Oberursel but have a background in fair trade marketing and a great interest in fair trade. I would love to have the opportunity to me the group.
If anyone has information on this please feel free to email me.
Thank you!
Hi Jacqueline,
would you like me to pass on the e-mail address that you posted the comment from to the steering group?
