Ten-Point has 'green' aspirations and we aim to follow Patagonia's mission of causing no unnecessary harm and inspiring others to do the same. We deduct 10p off the bill if you choose not to take a carrier bag, we have a recycling bin for organic cotton clothes, polartec fleeces and Patagonia baselayers, and aspire to Patagonia's philanthropic concept of 1% for the Planet.
