The Fairtrade Foundation FIVE GOALS - CALNE AUDIT RESULTS Page
We have to meet FIVE GOALS to confidently make an application to the Fairtrade Foundation for Fairtrade Community Status on behalf of Calne Town & Parish Communities. These goals are about assessing and encouraging the growth of the level of Fairtrade activity and product sales and consumption within the community. The level required to meet the required standard is based on our population. We are operating within the Fairtrade Foundation 20,000-25,000 range, where we sit around the middle of this, taken from the 2011 Census.
We have already noted that there is a greater than expected level of Fairtrade activity in our community area. This is very encouraging!

GOAL 2 |
Fairtrade product ranges are readily available in the area’s shops and retail outlets.
At least FOUR Fairtrade products are readily available in FIVE of the area's retail outlets (shops, supermarkets, newsagents, petrol stations). At least TWO products served in THREE local catering outlets (cafes, restaurants, pubs). Our population target for retailers is 5 and for catering establishments its 3, so quite a low bar which we intend to help raise. |

Goal 2 progress is indicated here as (In Progress, Almost Met, Fully Met)
Current Status: In Progress |
GOAL 3 |
|
Fairtrade products are used by an appropriate number of local workplaces. Workplaces in this context includes a wide range of organisations, including: Offices, shops, B&Bs, Hotels (residents only), community organisations, faith communities and places of education (e.g. Schools).
Our population target for churches is 50%. There is no set target for schools but we will aim to help schools raise their level of Fairtrade activity to demonstrate a serious effort to raise the bar. We won't know what we have to do to help the other categories until we start to audit. |

Goal 3 progress is indicated here as (In Progress, Almost Met, Fully Met).
Current Status: In Progress |
GOAL 5
|
A local Steering Group is convened to ensure progress and continued commitment to the campaign. This should ideally include a council representative, campaigners (that's us), and people representing the area’s schools, churches and businesses. The group is responsible for an annual assessment to monitor whether the area is continuing to meet the five goals. The group organises special events for Fairtrade Fortnight in February/March each year.
(Goal 5 progress is indicated here as (In Progress, Almost Met, Fully Met) with the current Steering Committee. Current Status: Almost Met
