The Body Shop believes the true wonder of Christmas is in its power to transform lives and create a fairer world. That’s why each Advent Calendar is a celebration of its most loved Community Fair Trade partners and is packed with goodies that have been made or enriched by them.
Community Fair Trade is The Body Shop’s bespoke programme that helps its small-hold producers gain market access and invest in social and environmental projects that benefit their communities.
The thoughtful designs are inspired by letters to Santa, with hope and wishes for a fairer world, as well as inspiring facts and empowering stories of the women at the heart of these partnerships.
It doesn’t stop at Community Fair Trade partners, either. This year, The Body Shop launched its activism campaign, Be Seen. Be Heard, to amplify young voices in the halls of power. Over Christmas, The Body Shop will continue to support young people who are contributing to their communities to make the world a fairer, more wonderful place. Over the festive period, The Body Shop will donate a minimum of £500,000* to organisations across the globe, which give young people a helping hand in getting a bigger voice.
Plus, once you’ve unboxed all your treats, the pop-ups in these calendars can be upcycled as gifts tags, decorations and more (head to thebodyshop.com for loads of repurposing ideas). The Big and Ultimate calendars’ unique drawer design is perfect for storing crafts, jewellery and other little bits and bobs, which means they can be reused long after Christmas too, for the gift that keeps on giving.
