We all at Scamper are deeply saddened by the death of Anita Roddick on the 10th September 2007.
In her lifetime, Anita got involved in campaigning for environmental and social issues, and founded Children On The Edge, a charitable organisation that helped the children in Eastern European countries and Asia.
She is best known as a founder of the ethical and environmentally friendly beauty products brand The Body Shop, which played a leading role in bringing awareness of environmental and social issues to main stream consumers. The company was one of the first to prohibit the use of ingredients tested on animals and one of the first to promote Fair Trade with third world countries.
She has left a message for the Friends of the Earth's 'The Big Ask' march calling for a strong climate law.
