A time to look back.

January 09, 2020

2019. What a year! A time when we gave back, strengthened our commitment to sustainability and had so much fun along the way. As we settle into 2020 and look forward to another exciting year (and decade) ahead, we couldn't help but take a little look back at 2019. So, let’s all raise a glass in celebration of 2019 whilst getting excited for what’s to come. Because 2020, we’re ready for you…

We started 2019 with 96% of the cotton for our cotton products being sustainably sourced. Now it’s 100%! We have more news about our commitments to sustainability coming soon, so watch this space.

WHEN LIFE GAVE US MELONS.

To us it looked like a festive jumper, to many of you it looked like a load of boobs! Well, we embraced it and are donating 10% of sales (a faboobulous £7,600) to breast cancer awareness charity, CoppaFeel!

We partnered with housing and homelessness charity Shelter, with 15% of the sales of selected items being donated to the charity. By buying these items, you guys have raised over £158,000 to be donated! Thank you.
