Brew it Fair
We’re asking the UK government to Brew it Fair. Like all of us, the people growing our tea deserve to be able to plan for their futures, and to protect themselves from the impacts of climate change.
Tea is the world’s most popular drink apart from water – in Britain alone we drink over 100 million cups of tea every day.
But right now, too little of the money in the industry goes back to the people who grow and pick our tea. As tea drinkers we have become used to paying very little, with an average tea bag today costing just two or three pence, while the cost to grow and pick our tea is increasing.
Urgent action is needed to support the people at the end of tea supply chains to create positive change for themselves, their communities and our shared environment.
It will require a collective effort to change the future with the people behind Britain’s favourite drink. Together, Governments, businesses and civil society organisations can work alongside tea growers and pickers to raise low tea prices, increase pay and demand human rights for the people behind the tea we drink.
