One Elephant...One Idea. Supporting education in Africa and Asia.

Why do some children have the right to an education whilst others don't? By buying one of their products, they will donate a school kit to a child in Africa or Asia. Simple as that.

Elephant Branded aim to make a positive, long term, and sustainable change to the communities that produce their products and the children that receive their school kits. One Elephant...One Idea.

You buy one ethically made, recycled bag or related product and they will give one ergonomically designed school bag and kit to a child in Africa or Asia. Simple as that. Elephant Branded pay a fair, competitive wage to local villagers who make their bags out of locally sourced, recycled materials. Not only do they get a fair, reasonable wage but they also have the opportunity to learn valuable skills that permit them to have a sustainable, effective way to get out of poverty. Then they sell it to people like you. The Elephant has just stepped outside. Now we have to keep him there.

These biodegradable glitters and gels are used as tools to create, to express yourself, to be free and to inspire others to do the same. We want to look after the environment in style and have fun while we do it.

Toast was founded in 2015 by Toastmaster Tristram Stuart. He’s an award-winning author and campaigner on the environmental and social impacts of food production. He also set up the charity Feedback, which aims to put a stop to food waste.

Tristram met the guys behind the Brussels Beer Project. Their bread-based Babylone inspired him to create a delicious beer that could tackle bread waste at an industrial level, whilst raising awareness of food waste globally and raising funds for Feedback.

They brewed our first batch in Hackney, London and launched to coincide with being featured on Jamie Oliver and Jimmy Doherty’s Friday Night Feast in January 2016.

Toast Ale have pledged profits will go to the charity Feedback, which aims to halve food waste by 2025. They want their impact to be greater than what they can do alone. So whilst they're directly tackling bread waste by including surplus in our beer, they're enabling Feedback to do much more.

Feedback leads a global movement against food waste, working with governments, businesses and civil society to catalyse change in social attitudes and demonstrate innovative solutions to tackle food waste. Its campaigns include: Feeding the 5000, Gleaning Network, The Pig Idea, Stop Dumping, and the FSE Network.

Billygoats & Raincoats is a unisex brand based in Wales creating quality rain wear from recycled tent materials.

Beth Cosmos established the brand after noticing the massive number of tents left behind at festivals.

While Billygoats & Raincoats is set to launch a collection of fun adult rain wear, their début collection consists of two kids raincoats. The designs are playful and geometric because we’re still just kids, playing with shapes and having fun with primary colours.

Billygoats & Raincoats are committed to ethical sustainability. All their products are designed and produced in the UK, while they only use tents which are destined for landfill. The company is a zero waste initiative, currently reusing every part of the tents they recover.

Nature gives us lots of wonderful ingredients that make our skin healthier and more radiant – like used coffee grounds and brewed chai tea spices. But they often end up going to landfill.

Why should all that good stuff go to waste?

It shouldn’t. That’s why, at UpCircle, they elevate leftover natural ingredients, bringing them back to life as beauty products your skin will love.

And as well as being 100% natural, their skincare range is also 100% brilliant. Because you shouldn’t have to choose between doing the right thing and getting the best results. With UpCircle, you get to enjoy the uplifting benefits of nature’s own skin rejuvenators – and do the planet some good, too.

That’s all-round better skincare.

Forget shower queues this summer and keep clean & fresh from the comfort of your own tent with this festival survival kit.

Most of the Full Circle products are sustainably sourced and from natural ingredients, all made in the UK, non-animal tested and vegan friendly, they are either reusable, biodegradable or recyclable which is great for the environment.

Meet Ben, founder of Spare Snacks. Sparing food is in his DNA.

Growing up, his mum refused to waste any fruit or veg. Sometimes they lasted so long they had their own personality and pension plan by the time it came to eat them.

Fruit picking in his teens, he was shocked to discover just how much fruit and veg goes to waste. He decided to do something about it. He visited his local market and started saving unwanted produce. With an old dehydrator, he made snacks and sold them through local cafes, Spare Snacks was born.

They’ve come a long way since then and he's proud that Spare Snacks now make the most delicious, thoughtfully produced fruit and veg crisps around.

They may have been wonky once but they’re pear-fect now. Waste not, want lots.

Award-winning flavours and positive social change, that’s us at Harry Specters. Mona, Shaz and their son Ash, who has autism, are behind this social enterprise. While visiting a chocolate shop on a holiday in Scotland in 2011, Mona discovered a perfect way of combining her passion for creating positive change for people with autism with her love for chocolate. Ash came up with the name and a year later, Harry Specters was born - dedicated to crafting the most delicious chocolates that create employment for young people with autism.

They are involved in every aspect of the business – from making and packaging the products to administration, design and photography. The chocolates have won numerous awards for their taste and hundreds of young people with autism have a brighter future. Every lovingly handcrafted bar and chocolate helps improve the lives of people with autism.

For every £1 of profit made at Harry Specters, Mona and Shaz decided that 60p would be set aside for furthering the social aims of the business, providing social activities for their invaluable employees as well as opportunities for their personal development.

PALA is on a mission. A mission to put an end to poverty, to protect the planet and to enable all people to enjoy peace and prosperity.

It’s easy to say, but much harder to put into practice. They’ve started by putting this mission at the heart of everything they do. From the products they make, the materials they use, the business practices they employ and the partners they select to work with, they’re working hard to walk the talk.

They admit they’re not there yet, but ultimately, their goal is to create a business that puts people and the planet before profits and ethical and sustainable practices at the forefront of their operations.
