What?
Aylsham Quakers aim to provide a community service which will reduce the number of single-use plastic bottles consumed, offer eco-friendly cleaning products at wholesale cost price, and raise funds for local charities.
Where?
At the Farmers’ Market, in the town square
When?
The first Saturday of each month, from 9-11 am, starting from July 3rd 2021
How?
We are running a re-fill station of Ecover and Alter/native by Suma (sustainable and ecological products)
We intend to supply the following items from 20 or 15 litre bags-in-boxes to fill plastic bottles or other suitable containers of any size that you will bring to the stall:
Washing up liquid
Non-bio Laundry liquid
Fabric Conditioner
All-purpose cleaner
Shampoo
Conditioner
Body wash
We’re collecting empty bottles for people to use to start with; if you use one, we’d ask for a small donation into our Food Bank collection tin.

Quaker Advices and Queries 41:
“Try to live simply. A simple lifestyle freely chosen is a source of strength. Do not be persuaded into buying what you do not need or cannot afford. Do you keep yourself informed about the effects your style of living is having on the global economy and environment?”
