Discounts
Here's some of the awesome deals we have negotiated with some great brands. These discounts are available to all of our followers, not just paid members, so get yourself a great deal!
You will see that some give you a discount, but some also pay us a small commission when you use our link to buy stuff. It doesn't cost you any more, but it massively helps to cover the costs of running this group, everything from volunteer training, to website hosting, event software fees, accountant costs and marketing costs. We are all volunteers, so every little bit helps.
We are also very careful about the brands we work with, making sure that we have used them personally ourselves, and that their values don't clash with our body positive approach.
