Story
Across The Body Shop at Home we are fundraising for Children on the Edge; to bring hope, life, colour and fun to children living on the edge of society.Children on the Edge was sparked into life by Dame Anita Roddick over 30 years ago. Not long after this The Body Shop At Home began to support them. Children on the Edge supports over 15,000 of the worlds most marginalised children to realise their rights. In India, Uganda, Bangladesh, Myanmar and Lebanon they help create protective environments where children can thrive.In 2021 our support can help Dalit children in India to access education, develop community activism and grow in confidence; helping to break the cycle of discrimination.
In February 2021, a small team of Body Shop Consultants and Managers are attempting to walk, run or cycle 1,000 miles!!! Not an easy task when we all have such busy lives but we are determined to do it so we can raise lots of money for this fantastic charity.
Day 6 update - we have managed to hit 409.66 miles in just 6 days!!!! Absolutely incredible especially taking the weather into account!!
