Did you know, we sell our sanitary products at cost? We also only stock #organic #plasticfree varieties, so no nasty chemicals. They can also be home composted after too, generating #zerowaste @natracare @organycuk #IWD2020 #EachforEqual #sustainablepeterborough #shoplocal

We’re in a climate and nature emergency. @BorisJohnson will you join other party leaders and agree to a televised #climatedebate? We deserve to hear the Prime Minister’s plans for action.

Buying LESS gives us MORE time & money to spend on the things that will make us truly happy: relationships, experiences, our community & nature 💚 Shopping is over-rated. #LessPlastic #LessWaste #LessShopping #MoreLove #MorePurpose #MoreFun #MoreNature theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Peterborough City Council has tonight declared a Climate Emergency and committed to be carbon neutral by 2030 :) Huge thanks to all, from Extinction Rebellion and beyond, who have worked so hard to support this motion.
