Fairtrade man to stand for Senator

00200475_cropped.jpgTHE Fairtrade campaigner Daniel Wimberley is running for Senator.

Mr Wimberley (59) is campaigning on a platform of bringing back a population cap and reducing waste.
He joins Deputy Peter Troy and former Magistrate Ian Le Marquand in the running for a six-year term, for which elections will be held on 15 October.

Mr Wimberley ran Rural Enterprises for Jersey Mencap, which trained people with learning difficulties in horticulture, and is a former chairman of Christian Aid in Jersey, former trustee of the Jersey Community Relations Trust and former manager of Jersey Cycletours. He set up the Jersey Fairtrade Group in 2003 and the Jersey Trade Justice Awareness project as part of the Make Poverty History campaign.
