Support For Lowering Rates Of Suicide In Australia
James&Co was founded in 2012 and bears the name of the son of James&Co and Earth Totes.
James Lucas was 24 years old when he died in 2011 by suicide. He was a beautiful young man who struggled with depression in his too-brief life. In his talented writing, James exhorted us to 'Live Life & Love It' and he inspires us now to uphold that legacy.
James&Co and Earth Totes make a donation from every order of 1% of the price to Suicide Prevention Australia. These donations are made in order to help the research and help reduce the numbers of people in Australia who die by suicide.
I write about reusable living and everyday sustainability
Through James&Co and brands I write about practical sustainability — the small everyday choices that can reduce waste and help retailers offer products that reflect changing consumer values.
Why reusable products matter
Sustainability is often discussed in big global terms, but many changes begin with simple everyday habits.
Everyday accessories and necessities can play an important role in reducing waste while encouraging more responsible consumer behaviour.
James&Co, Earth Totes and CORKSTORE each focus on those everyday products.
Why CORKSTORE, Earth Totes, James&Co brands exist
The brands Anne founded are not just businesses.
They are a response to the environmental damage caused by leather, plastic-based faux leather and disposable fashion accessories.
Through James&Co, CORKSTORE , and Earth Totes Anne demonstrates that retailers can offer accessories made from materials that are plastic-free, plant-based, renewable, biodegradable.
Each brand explores a different sustainable material.
