Dear Prestonpans.com

I wanted to find some way to say thank you to the kind people of Prestonpans for their support on Sunday 23rd May.
You made the runners, including me, very welcome.

The cheers, hosepipes, water pistols, Haribos and jelly babies were a real boost in the hot conditions.
Great going out and a real boost for the final few miles.

I don't underestimate the disturbance, mess and traffic problems an event like the Marathon can bring.
However, your warmth and kindness to people raising millions for charity was a hugely uplifting highlight - Scotland at its best!

Thanks again

(and yes I finished!)

Make Your Summer Fayre ...Fair!

Summer Fayre, Fete & Gala season is well underway with many schools, churches and local organisations holding their events over the next few weekends.  

Here a few ways the Small World can help

We can supply goods on a sale or return basis if you wish to have a fair trade presence at your event.  Given enough notice, and depending on volunteer availability, we may be able to staff the stall on your behalf. 

If you are one of the many parents who have received a plea for donation of homebaking from your child's school, why not use fair trade ingredients (and tell people you have done so).  In addition to stocking fair trade baking essentials, we also have a small range of recipe books for loan.


And of course, the simplest way of supporting fair trade is to serve our tea and coffee (we stock an extensive range of speciality refreshments and catering size teabags and coffee).
