A Better Weigh, in Old Street, was opened last month by Laura Webster.

As its slogan says, the new shop offers people a better way to shop, eat and live.

Laura said: "It is about supporting independent shops, we have a lot of local businesses in here who we also support.

"The eating part is about promoting healthier eating and then the live part is the whole environmental side of it and cutting out the packaging.

"We were out and about last year in Bristol and came across one of these stores and just loved the concept and felt it was the way forward and it was something we wanted to do in our town.

"It has become so much already and it has just been amazing."

People can bag up anything from nuts to pasta, rice to dried fruit as well as a range of essentials like bottles and soap.
