About the charity

Profits from our shop support IAPWA - International Aid for the Protection and Welfare of Animals. We’re a UK-registered animal welfare charity providing a critical lifeline for animals around the world. Through our projects and partnerships we deliver treatment, support and long-term change for animals who need us.

This product collection helps fund our work protecting pangolins. Did you know that the illegal wildlife trade results in the brutal death of tens of thousands of these innocent animals every year? Ruthless poachers extract them from their natural habitat and sell them on the black market to be used for food, medicine and even fashion.

In the Philippines alone, the pangolin population has experienced a devastating decline due to relentless trafficking, pushing them dangerously close to extinction. It is a horrific and barbaric trade, and their plight cannot be ignored any longer. We’re raising money and collecting signatures to help us save the species, putting pressure on local government and law enforcement to take this issue seriously before it’s too late.
