THREE years doesn’t sound like such a long time in the grand scheme of things, but for a small independent business it can feel like a lifetime, and sadly quite often is as shops come and go, but this is not a sad announcement, it’s a joyous one!

My Carbon Coach, my little eco shop and refillery in the heart of the Taunton Independent Quarter is turning three in September and you’re all invited to come along and celebrate.

Whether you’re an existing customer already giving green living a go, or have never thought about making any eco-swaps so far, everyone is welcome.

On Saturday, September 7, the shop will be open from 9am until 5pm and there’ll be free vegan treats for everyone to enjoy as you browse (previous years have had cookies and also cupcakes) and there’ll be a special offer too, everyone who spends £30 or more on the day will get a £5 gift card to spend on their next visit as a huge thank you from me.

The driving force behind the shop is helping people to help the planet. Some people can do a lot, some people can’t and that’s totally ok either way.

We can all do what we can do for future generations and so I’m here to help in any way I can by providing options, information, and a laid back, friendly and relaxed environment for you to explore and discover. Being a bit greener doesn’t have to cost the earth!

So please do pop the date in your diary and head down, My Carbon Coach is at 18 Lower Middle Street, just down from the World Of Bears, where the Old Mexican used to be.
