Since hitting the shelves in major UK pharmacy Boots back in 2014, Childs Farm has gone from strength to strength, becoming a leading skincare brand for children in the UK, before expanding to Australia and New Zealand. This success has been helped along by vocal fans and loyal brand ambassadors on social media who have shared their stories of the difference Childs Farm has made to their lives. Also a hit with celebrities, Childs Farm has had its share of celebrity ambassadors. Most recently, Sophie Ellis Baxter has partnered with Childs Farm after using the range for her boys over the years.
In addition to caring for skin, Childs Farm is also passionate about our planet – having obtained certified Carbon Neutral status last year, Childs Farm has chosen to offset more than their measured CO2 emissions by investment into tree planting, reducing deforestation and forest degradation in Brazil, along with other initiatives in India and the UK. When it comes to packaging, Childs Farm has put a lot of effort into reducing plastic pollution, such as making their lids smaller and using at least 30% recycled plastic for their bottles. Childs Farm is currently working towards having their bottles be 100% ‘prevented ocean plastic’ bottles – which is recycled plastic collected from coastal and river areas at risk of ocean plastic pollution – saving 109 tonnes of virgin plastic.
Childs Farm is available online at www.childsfarm.co.nz and a small range is available at selected Unichems, Life Pharmacies and Countdown supermarkets.
