EcoChic-Who are we?
So here I am, Deborah Miarkowska, Founder of EcoChic.
I have just spent this morning teaching students at the University of Brighton on environmental issues, climate change and public health. This so inspires me to make a difference, as it is so clear that climate change will affect us all, most of all the poorest in our world. This is why I am so passionate about Ethical & Fair Trade as it gives people opportunities, sustainable livelihoods and keeps families and communities together. I am so inspired with the people we are working with, who have the smallest carbon footprints in the world and produce the most beautiful products, often by hand and in an eco-friendly manner. So please join us in this success story and help us to continue to support those to a better future . As the weeks progress I will be showing you how our products tell such an amazing story and make such a difference. To begin with each of our products holds their own story which are described alongside each image.

So nice to find a website that takes the time to explain why you sell and why we should buy fair trade- its so easy to buy cheap stuff from the developing world without understanding the consequences. Thanks for speaking up!
