Dear [insert MSP name]

I am a Fair Trade supporter and a constituent in your region / constituency. I am writing to ask you to consider signing Scottish Fair Trade’s Fair Trade Pledge and, in your time as a MSP, commit to supporting all actions which will improve the livelihood of farmers and workers who produce many of the products which we consume everyday. Details of the pledge are below:

During my time in post as an MSP, I will:

1. Take actions to promote Scotland’s Fair Trade Nation status
2. Listen to the voices of producers in global supply chains, support actions to build back a fairer economy and tackle the climate emergency
3. Support measures to increase the public procurement of Fair Trade products

To show your support for Fair Trade as an MSP, please email Scottish Fair Trade at pledge@sftf.org.uk stating:

a) your name
b) your constituency / region
c) your political party if you have one

Scottish Fair Trade can then add you to the list of signatories and send you graphics for showing your support on your social media. 

Thank you for supporting Fair Trade.
