Hello! This post is about an amazing refill shop :)
You can take any plastic (or non-plastic) container, bottle etc... and get it refilled with shampoo, nuts, seeds, pasta, washing up liquid and much more. This greatly reduces the amount of packaging you buy and therefore the amount that is produced or ends up in the environment! All of the products are completely vegan (=cruelty-free).
All of Tami's (the owner's)products are fair trade (meaning human beings involved in their production have good working conditions and are paid fairly). If it is not fair trade, she will not have it in the shop!
Where possible, she sources her products locally which means you are also reducing air miles and/ or shipping (therefore less pollution)! :)
The shop also sells things that will help to reduce plastic such as metal water bottles and wooden straws as well as a lot more!
Here is the address if you want to visit it:
Blue House Yard, 5 River Park Rd, Wood Green, London N22 7TB Studio 7 - The little yellow house
Her shop is so successful that it will soon be moving to a bigger premises. I think that this shop is different from other refill shops because it is also completely vegan and fair trade. She has considered other things such as air miles - so she's not just thinking about reducing plastic. The shop is called Harm Less for a very good reason!
Please visit this shop if it is local to you, and if not - see if you have something similar nearby! Let us know if you have found somewhere in the comments below!
We will post again soon,

Later on this year hopefully in September we may be doing an interview with the owner of Harmless!
