Shared Earth is a great place to buy gifts, although if I’m honest they don’t stock much for your average guy. Everthing in the shop is ethical and environmentally friendly. They stock things like notebooks, photo albumns, cushions, throws, money boxes and re-useable shopping bags. They do a great range of jewellery and some fantastic wine glasses made from recycled glass bottles. Buy your gifts here and shop with a clear conscience. The staff are friendly and the shop has a relaxed, laid back atmosphere; they’re used to people just browsing. It’s not cheap, but not too dear either and you’re paying for ethical goods.
