Guest post from Filling Good

Filling Good is hosting free informative sessions on sustainable living over the summer. Get your green on!

Filling Good is the local and not for profit community zero waste shop and is run mostly by volunteers. They are based upon cooperative principles, one of which is sharing of sustainable living information. Check out what the team have planned in this guest post:


Filling Good is providing free informative sessions on sustainable living, with several of our inspiring local stakeholders.

All conferences are free of charge. Bring a packed lunch and come along to the amphitheater, in front of RBWM Library, St Ives Road, Maidenhead SL6 1QU.

We have planned eight conferences this summer at lunchtime, covering several topics:

🍃energy
🍃agriculture
🍃shopping habits
🍃soap making
🍃natural cosmetics
🍃zero waste lifestyle
🍃oceans plastics
🍃local biodiversity

A team of three volunteers and the Filling Good directors are organizing these events, which we hope will resonate in the local community and inspire for change towards a more sustainable lifestyle!

Book online for these free sessions and pop along to the amphitheater opposite to the library with your lunch (you can even refill your water bottle at the shop for free).
