Story
I am a 5 year old little girl who considers herself privileged in life. My wish for Christmas is for other children to be as lucky as me. I have asked mummy if for Christmas I can sleep rough to raise money for the COTE charity.
Mummy says it’s very cold outside but we have decided I will turn off all the heating, sleep on cardboard with a make shift shelter. I will wear thin pjs and experience the reality of the children who live in both this country and others around the world! .

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.
