- Sector: production
- Headquarters Country: UK
- Operating Regions: UK
- Founders: Camilla
- Problem Identified: Less care for disadvantage people. And plastic problem.
- Solution Offered: all our products are handcrafted in the UK by people who are blind, disabled or otherwise disadvantaged. We take pride in paying attention where it matters, from our award winning minimalist design to locally sourced bottles and compostable soap wrappers.
- Social Impact: We currently employ over 100 people - 80% of whom are blind, disabled or otherwise disadvantaged. Through the sale of our products we create over 10,000 days of employment and aim to generate over 60 new jobs per year. We provide a stepping stone into other employment, or a long-term job for those for whom this goal is less likely. We think that's pretty special.
