A welcome cup of Fairtrade hot chocolate while here on holiday from Lancashire.
Goldings in Staithe Street is where you need to go to buy your jar of Fairtrade hot chocolate.


Close to Mermaids Purse on Staithe Street is this lovely raised bed put together by WAFT. Last Autumn 750 crocus corms were planted in purple and blue in readiness for spring.

WELCOME TO WAFT
Wells-next-the-Sea is a small, thriving, coastal, town on the North Norfolk coast of Norfolk.
In 2004 a letter of support was received from Wells Town Council. This was the beginning of the campaign to achieve Fairtrade status. The steering group decided to adopt the following title:- WAFT (Wells Action for Fair-Trade). Early in 2007 Wells-next-the-Sea was awarded Fairtrade status. During this time WAFT members worked steadily towards achieving the five goals set out by the Fairtrade Foundation to achieve Fairtrade Town status.
- The local council must pass a resolution supporting Fairtrade.
- A range of Fairtrade products must be readily available in the area's shops and served in local cafés and catering establishments. (targets are set in relation to population)
- Fairtrade products must be used by a number of local work places (estate agents, hairdressers etc) and community organisations (churches, schools etc)
- Attract media coverage and popular support for the campaign. (The certificate recognising this is now displayed in the town library.)
- A local Fairtrade steering group must be convened to ensure continued commitment to Fairtrade Town status.
