"It's Time to Get Active" - Stop this Vile Crime


Dame Anita Roddick, Founder of The Body Shop, was never one to shy away from issues others would avoid. It was inevitable that Anita had to react when she discovered the horrors of a modern day slave trade in our midst. Unfortunately Anita's death in 2007 meant her campaign against human trafficking had only just begun.

Inspired by her passion for justice, her work lives on as The Body Shop continue her fight with their latest campaign "Stop Sex Trafficking of Children and Young People" in partnership with ECPAT International.


ECPAT International are a pioneering organisation having brought the issue of commercial sexual exploitation, especially that of child sex tourism, to the attention of world leaders and the global community in the early 1990s.


By purchasing a tube of the new Soft Hands Kind Heart Hand Cream, you will be reaching out to the hundreds of thousands of vulnerable children and young people exploited by the commercial sex trade.


£3.45 from your purchase will be donated to ECPAT, for the fight to stop sex trafficking of children and young people in the UK and around the world.


For more information or if you want to get more involved in the fight against this vile crime, visit www.thebodyshop.com/stop or you can raise your hand in support and sign the Body Shop's petition online or in-store.
