Fair Deal Food Writer’s Award to Ian O’Reilly

Apr 27, 2011 - 03:16 PM

On Monday 4th April Tom Rigby of Johnson’s Farm near Warrington, visited Lower Gazegill Farm, Rimington, Lancs: “a fascinating place, an old traditional farm with some state-of-the-art renewable energy technology.

He presented a Fair Deal Food Writer’s Award to Ian O’Reilly, whose letters to the press have been making a clear and powerful case for fairly traded British food.

A donation was made to ARC Addington, in his name, because as he said, they ”helped many through the Foot and Mouth Crisis and many again when Dairy Farmers of Britain went to the wall”
