Coming up this weekend, Sunday, 20th May is Father’s Day!
This is an excellent time to celebrate the dad’s, grandfathers, uncles and father figures in your life. Besides spending the day showering them with praise and perhaps their favourite meal, this is also the perfect opportunity to offer sincere thanks for their support, love and care.

Here is a selection of seven earth-friendly gift ideas that are creative, fun and great for any Dad.

Unfortunately, billions of plastic razors and cartridges are thrown away every year. They cannot be recycled, as the metal is embedded in plastic, meaning the plastic is burned or ends up in nature. Traditional safety razors are an effective swap for plastic-free shaving. The zero-waste razor uses one single blade made from stainless steel which is easily recyclable.
