It is amazing how a small acorn can lead to a huge tree.   And one chance meeting can lead to a something which brings about lasting relationships which help everyone. 

Let me tell you about Paper High because this chance meeting is how this company started.   From an acorn, Paper High has grown into a big tree.

Paper High sell unusual products which have been skilfully crafted by artisans in India, Sri Lanka and Nepal.  They include photo albums, notebooks, gloves, hats, socks, throws, bags, rugs, Christmas decorations, garden decorations and more!

Paper High began when Mark and Claire (who are behind the company) went on a round-the-world trip.  The seed was sown as a result of a chance meeting with a paper maker which came about as an unexpected change in a destination, a longer stay in Kathmandu.  Today, Paper High work with a strong network of relationships with small family businesses, charities, community incentives and accredited Fair Trade organisations.  Everyone benefits.  All their products are hand made from sustainable materials which - wherever possible - have been recycled.

These are recycled newspaper photo frames and gifts

Some of these materials are unusual.   For example, how about a photo album which has been made mainly from elephant poo?  Or a photo frame which has been made from recycled newspapers? 

How about a large Colourful Elephant Dung Notebook
or other elephant dung gift?

They’ve got goodies made of recycled plastic, natural cork, recycled leather and recycled newspapers.  And of course elephant dung has gone through the elephant already.  They've also got mango wood items:

I’ve been using Green People for a long time now.  I’m not a lippy and make-up sort of girl, so it was a huge swap for me to  go from soap to using their cleanser and moisturiser.  One of the things which swayed it for me and makes me feel good when I buy their products is that they support a number of charities, such as the Marine Conservation Charity and the World Land Trust whose supporters help with land purchase for conservation groups around the world.  Green People also support Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome as the Founder’s daughter, suffered from this little known illness.   Their team have volunteered at team food banks, beach cleans and are constantly looking for other ways to help out.
