For example, we sell ethical products with claims certified by the Fairtrade Labelling Organisation, Soil Association, and Energy Saving Trust. We appreciate your fundamental question is 'how ethical?' is a given product – we do our best to help you find the correct answers.

Ultimately the choice is yours, the ethical consumer, of what to support in your ethical purchasing – our aim is to empower you to make the choices that are right for you and your family. Please let us know if there is a product or brand you feel we should support (or stop supporting).
