Charitable giving, 2025

In our financial year ended 30 June 2025 Lush worldwide (including all subsidiaries, associates, licensees and franchisees) raised and set aside funds of £4,385,000 (2024: £6,604,000) and donated a total of £4,735,000 (2024: £5,700,000) to charities and other good causes.

Of the total amount donated, £4,476,000 (2024: £5,569,000) was from the Lush Group. Funds raised in the year but not donated are carried forward for distribution in the following year. Our charitable giving has always focused on innovative, effective giving through support of small, grassroots organisations working in the areas of environment, human rights and animal protection. We aim to support causes and organisations that are overlooked by others and also address the root causes of issues through campaigns, education and activism. Our support is not limited to registered charities. 

This year the decision was taken to end the Charity Pot fund which started in 2007. Having donated more than £75 million pounds globally with over 17,000 donations. It was decided to continue raising awareness with Campaign products but to include individual Giving products to highlight specific issues. One of these Giving products which was a great success was Watermelon soap, raising awareness about children’s mental health in Palestine.
