Sahara Challenge : introducing Anji Sharp
Cashier No 1...Anji in action at one of our sales
The lovely Anji Sharp has been volunteering for The Body Shop Foundation for over 10 years now - helping at sales, stock sorts, gift bag assembly, handed out water at the first Brighton Marathon ever – you name it, she’s done it! She’s one of our loyalist, most caring, funniest volunteers and we love her dearly for being so committed and enthusiastic of our work here at The Body Shop Foundation.
She’s now signed up to the Sahara Challenge, pushing herself to the limit for access to clean water for others. We think she’s a total star – read more about her here in the 10 questions we ask absolutely everyone…
