Sheffield based Bamboo Bobbi becomes World's First Not-for-Profit Toilet Roll
and live on Freeview channel 276
Driven by the pressing issue of poverty in the UK, Bamboo Bobbi is a passion project from The Intelligent Group, a Sheffield-based business. The Intelligent team generously volunteers their time, managing everything from warehousing to marketing.
Millions of people in the UK rely on food banks, but necessities like toilet paper are often out of reach for struggling families. By becoming a non-profit, Bamboo Bobbi can help address this problem.

Bamboo Bobbi offers complete transparency. They have no paid staff, directors, or office/warehousing expenses. All their income goes directly towards buying and donating toilet paper. Bamboo Bobbi is set up to be totally accountable, and they regularly share clear breakdowns of finances and the amount of toilet paper they have donated.
Bamboo Bobbi is committed to an online “buy one, give one” model. With every roll purchased online, they donate an eco-friendly roll to a UK food bank, doubling the positive impact – on the environment and in communities.
Plus, their Bamboo toilet paper is soft, and strong and lasts for ages, it's probably one of the nicest toilet paper you'll ever use!
