Are you looking to shop more sustainably and want to know which brands to support? Here, Tara Pilkington brings you 5 brands that are doing their bit to make the world a better place!
BECO.uk
BECO.uk is a great brand which creates vegan soap which not only helps the planet by reducing your water usage (their soap is self-foaming), but it also helps its people as 80% of their workforce are disabled. While there are over a million disabled folks currently out of work, BECO are committed to ensuring that other employers follow their lead. They even have a page on their website dedicated to showcasing their staff and encouraging other companies to employ them!
Stand for Socks
Stand for Socks create ethical, high-quality socks that also give back! For each pair that you purchase, one is donated to the homeless. Most recently, they created a limited edition range, ‘Stand4 Health Heros’ which when purchased donated two pairs; one pair which is donated to the homeless, and a second pair is donated to NHS health heroes.
Pela Case
If you think about how many people own a mobile phone and how many are using a phone case, it’s shocking to realise the amount of plastic that is wasted when there are much better alternatives! Pela Case offer a wide range of phone cases for the most popular devices and the best part is that once you no longer need it, it’s fully biodegradable!
NEMI teas
NEMI teabags are made with the highest quality biodegradable, corn-starch based material which contains no plastic! Plus, what makes them even better is that they are committed to helping refugees integrate by providing them with employment.
Choose Love
Choose Love is the world’s first store that sells real products for refugees! On their website, you can pick items for purchase that will be delivered to one of their 80 projects that directly help refugees. Â
