As of 14th October 2022 we rebelled, and for now have an anti-social media platform policy. Let's connect in a real way, set yourself free from the scroll....
Collectively with our Loyal Rebel customers, as a brand and community for good, we formally commit to donate the minimum of the equivalent of 2% of our total revenues to charitable partners each and every year. This includes all cash and in kind donations, whatever it takes to always #payitforward.
We launched our Loyal Rebel Register on the 6th April 2020, to read more about how the Register works click here. We are so proud to be part of the #PayItForward movement with our amazing rebel customers. With their loyalty and generosity the following donations have been made!
