About us

Picture

Welcome to An Ethical Life, we are a 100% Vegan shop.  You can relax in the knowledge that whatever you see in the shop is suitable for Vegans, those following a plant based diet or for those with a dairy intolerance.

We are also a refill shop to encourage and help people & businesses to reduce their plastic waste.  

You can buy the quantity that  you need/want without any waste.  The products are all wholefoods,  a lot are organic and the best bit...…… no plastic packaging.  You bring in your reusable container, be it a produce bag, plastic container, mason jar or upcycled glass jar, and the product is decanted into this.

Our aim is to help you reduce your plastic waste, save money, buy excellent quality produce and have a positive impact on the environment.

We also offer online shopping for shipping nationwide. 

​We truly value our planet and want to help people reduce the amount of plastic waste that is being created.

We have an ever expanding range of ethical & vegan products and are always on the lookout for new ranges .  If you have a product you would like us to stock please contact us with details.

We source as many products as possible from local independent companies who supply our handmade and reusable items.  Not only is this great for the environment it is great for local businesses too.
