CORNELIA'S COFFEE SHOP NEWS
Fairtrade - a Better Deal for Third World Producers Cornelia's Coffee Shop
In December 2004 Cornelia's Coffee Shop moved. It re-opened in the larger and more prominent position in the front of St Nicholas' Church Hall facing Church Green. New half glazed doors with clear glass have been fitted facing the garden, so that customers can look out on the world, and would-be customers can see in, giving Cornelia's an improved open feel.

Cornelia's is open Monday to Saturday 9am - 11.45am and is staffed by friendly volunteers who would love to see you and serve you with Fairtrade refreshments. Excellent choice of fine coffee at excellent prices, plus other drinks, biscuits, cakes, snack bars, chocolate, etc. (The Webmaster has checked out these good temptations!) All profits go to Charity, so your coffee really will make a difference.

ST NICHOLAS IS A FAIRTRADE PARISH:

The Diocese of St Albans had planned to become a Fairtrade Diocese requiring 60% of all its parishes to acquire Fairtrade status in order to do this, and it has just acheived this with its Fairtrade certificate being presented to Bishop Christopher on 24th Feb 2007.

Impressively, ahead of many other parishes, St Nicholas became a Fairtrade Parish some while back with the PCC pledging on behalf of the congregation to:

1. Use Fairtrade tea and coffee for all meetings for which we have responsibility.
2. Move forward on using other Fairtrade products such as sugar, biscuits and fruit.
3. Promote Fairtrade at events during Fairtrade Fortnight - and through other activities, whenever possible.

Therefore, would everyone please ensure that they only use Fairtrade tea, coffee and sugar across the Parish on all occasions. Cornelia's coffee shop can supply these at 10% discount on Tradecraft prices, so please call and stock up!!
