THE ISSUE

Give with justice in mind

It is often talked about how interconnected our world really is. Our shoes are made in China, oranges are grown in California, our call centres are in India, and our coffee comes from Brazil. However it is all too easy to forget (and I am certainly no saint when it comes to shopping!) that the way we consume, and in this case, the presents we buy can be at the expense of another person.

This Christmas the challenge to you and me is to ‘give with justice in mind’, to consider who made the present, where it is from, and what materials it is made. In short, whether it is a gift of joy for all or hardship for some.
