Traidcraft's mission is to fight poverty through trade, practising and promoting approaches to trade that help poor people in developing countries transform their lives.  Established in 1979 as a Christian response to poverty, combining a trading company and a development charity, building lasting relationships with producers, supporting people to trade out of poverty and working to bring about trade justice.

There is a Traidcraft stall, from which purchases can be made, in the Cathedral Hall following Sunday morning services.
