Today is World Refill Day! It's a global call to cut single-use plastics by choosing reusable and refillable options. Small everyday swaps - like using beeswax wraps instead of cling-film, or refilling bottles and containers - can make a big impact.

Why not join the from16 - 20 June: Try one simple swap each day, or stick with one that works for you. From reusing your containers to going packaging-free … every swap counts. One Swap. 5 days. Big impact.

Did you know that all our profits from the shop go back into the community?

One of the ways we do this is to award grants to other local voluntary groups. We have received this little thank you card for the recent £300 we have provided to the Guides.

We are proud to be able to support them and we hope you, our customers are too 😊. Without you shopping with us, we wouldn't have such a fantastic community, so thank you too!

World Cup ready? We are!

If you need drinks or snacks to keep you going through the late evenings we’ve got you sorted. Beer, wine, soft drinks galore and plenty of snacks, including Trawden’s favourite Lancashire crisps.

Every week we think our crisps order can’t get bigger and then it does, again 😂

We can’t predict the quality of the football but we are sure the drinks and snacks will be top tier 🏆
