Give A Crap

Who Gives A Crap is a UK based company that sells toilet paper which is wrapped in funky, quirky wrapping paper.

The company started out because a group of people found out the 2.4 billion people don’t have access to a toilet (which is now 2 billion thanks to their progress). There are roughly 289,000 children who die every year due to diarrhoea diseases; these children are under 5 years old and it is because of poor water systems and sanitary conditions that they find themselves in this predicament.
‘We thought that was pretty crap… Simon sat on a toilet… and refused to move until we had raised enough pre-orders to start production. 50 hours and one cold bottom later we’d raised over $50,000.’

The company began in March 2013, and has grown and continues to grow to this day. Their toilet roll is ‘Good or the planet, good for your bum’. The packaging is 100% plastic free and 50% of the profits go to help building toilets in countries who need it.

Who Gives A Crap is a certified B corporation; they have to highest level of social and environmental awareness. This is proved by their packaging, their ethos and their product, it doesn’t use any inks, scents or dyes.

Furthermore, their website gives helpful insights for tips and tricks for being more environmentally aware and responsible, along with major current problems the world might be facing at this time, they achieve this through a blog on their website. Overall, their company is about more than just the toilet roll, it’s about making a positive impact on the world and helping save lives and the environment.
