The Body Shop At Home™ - A Company with Heart

​The Body Shop At Home™ has been awarded this year’s DSA Company with Heart Award for their work with Children on the Edge. 

​Each year the DSA (Direct Selling Association) hosts industry awards and this award is in recognition of a Member company that has gone the extra mile through the philanthropic activities, charitable impact and community engagement.
 
The Body Shop At Home™ is the direct selling arm of The Body Shop®, a global beauty brand built on making people feel so good – face, body and soul. This company strives to make a positive difference in the world and supporting Children on the Edge is one of the ways they bring this commitment to life.
 
Children on the Edge was co-founded by Anita Roddick over 25 years ago. She always believed that business should be about public good not public greed and since the outset her company has supported the work we do. 
 
They have raised huge amounts over this time, and over £270k in the past three years alone. The recent fundraising focus has been on providing support for Ugandan children living in appalling conditions in Soweto Slum, Jinja. Throughout this time they have contributed towards incredible community transformation through the establishment of a safe children’s education Centre, a Child Protection Team, flourishing agricultural schemes and small business loans. 
 
Building on this success they are now supporting Children on the Edge to replicate this work in the wider region, bringing change on a bigger scale. 
 
We are delighted The Body Shop At Home™ has been recognised in this way as they truly are a company with heart.
