The creation of the Chanctonbury Ring is a converg The creation of the Chanctonbury Ring is a convergence of a number of my passions. Talismanic ethical fairtrade jewellery, environmental justice, community based education and Celtic Christian spirituality. How you Spend Controls what Happens on the Planet was a t-shirt slogan the British fashionista Katharine Hamnett created for me back in the late 90’s, when I was running CRED Foundation. There has never been a more pertinent observation for our current climatic situation. The idea came at dawn prayers on Celtic Easter morning atop the ancient neolithic stronghold of Chanctonbury Ring. This iconic liminal place on an ancient pilgrimage route, now called the South Downs Way, has always been a spiritual destination for me since childhood. A place I am now privileged to be able to call home. #fairtradesilver #chanctonburyring #societystcolumba #responsiblejewellery #ethicaljewellery #climatechange #climatejustice #educationforchange #gregvalerio #sustainableluxury #fairtradejewellery #fairtrade #fairtradeproducts
