Bags of Change founder Faith Simpson says, “It’s important that not only are our bags ethically sourced, but that they also look and feel great. The design and function is just as important, otherwise people won’t buy or use them. We are determined to change people’s shopping habits: as well as offering shoppers a bag that they will reuse, I want to encourage people to shop more ethically and support the local independents that offer us that option. Bags of Change promotes the UK’s best ethical independent retailers – all of whom offer a discount to anyone shopping with a Bags of Change bag. We are essentially building an ethical shopping community in the UK, and it is working.
“People are being more cautious about how they spend their money at the moment but that is where our ethical shopping loyalty scheme can help. Our affiliated shops offer up to 10% discount on organic, Fairtrade and sustainable food, clothing, gifts and household products. Even in the current climate many shoppers still want to do the right thing and make ethical shopping choices. Bags of Change can help them do that.”
