Aq_fthfirth_brochure2
Growing up in Holmfirth, in West Yorkshire, may be a sharp contrast to the chaos of Kathmandu and the city brights of London, but I have been lucky to have much support from not only friends and family at home, but local businesses and mentors who have helped me establish and develop my business over the years.

So I am realy pleased to be part of the Holme Valley Fairtrade Supporters Group brochure which promotes local businesses, including AURA QUE but also promoting our fairtrade friends and other local businesses:

Fair & Funky, who provide fantastic creative and educational workshops for community groups and children across West Yorkshire, promoting fairtrade and recycling ethos.  https://twitter.com/fair_funky

Bolling Coffee who produce Grumpy Mule Fairtrade coffee from beans sourced from fair trade and small cooperative farming units far and wide. https://twitter.com/GrumpyMule

and the Fair Traders Cooperative, a local boutique for food, fashion and gifts from fairtrade sources, or recycled concepts or local companies - they even stock AURA QUE products! https://twitter.com/FairTradersCoop

AURA QUE creates a range of stylish contemporary accessories manufactured by the Nepal Fair Trade Group to increase ethical production in the developing country of Nepal.

Each AURA QUE design is brought to life in a Nepalese factory that employs local people affected by disabilities, providing an income for themselves and their families according to fair trade principles.
Designer Laura Queening incorporates local materials wherever possible, such as Allo hemp produced from a Himalayan plant, handmade brass fittings, natural textured Lokta paper and the traditional woven cloth.

AURA QUE products use high quality 100% Buffalo leather that is a by-product of the food industry. AURA QUE products are individually hand crafted in Nepal, which may result in slight variations. The unique story behind each AURA QUE product enhances its charm!
