Fun
Did you know that for many children in Japan, life has not yet returned to normal after the 2011 tsunami and nuclear disaster? 10p from every bar of Fun (and 17.5p from Rainbow Fun) you buy will go into a FunD to help children’s projects in the affected areas. We try to make sure we have a great deal of fun working here at Lush and it is something that visitors often comment on. When you are having fun and To use as soap or shampoo, making a product called Fun, it seems only right to try to spread the fun to take a small bit in your hand, places where there might not be quite so much of it.
How to use
What is the FunD?
Through our contacts in Japan and the previous work we did with NGOs in the areas affected by the 2011 earthquake, tsunami and nuclear disaster, we are aware that the situation for children in the affected areas is still very far from having returned to the normal fun of childhood. The children of the Fukushima area in particular are severely effected – often, very real concerns over radiation levels mean that playing outside is too dangerous. Despite decontamination efforts, many school playgrounds remain off limits and outdoor play in streets and parks is not possible, meaning that children are playing alone in their houses on computers more and more whilst exercise, free running and mixing with peer groups is severely reduced. We would like to target the FunD at this group; identifying charities, community groups and parent initiatives providing fun-filled, group activities for children in the affected areas.
