Christian Aid Week 2011: Hayley Atwell sees Christian Aid coffee project in Nicaragua
Actress Hayley Atwell, ambassador for Christian Aid, travels to Jinotega in Nicaragua to see the success story of Soppexcca. The organisation is a cooperative of more than 700 producers encouraged by Christian Aid to secure a fair price for coffee grown on their land. She meets community leader Gustavo Talavera, who helped build a school in his village with profits from coffee, and his niece Martha, whose work with Soppexcca is helping to pay for her to train to be a nurse.
