Jacaranda - In a Nutshell

What's New

Dame Anita Roddick Dies
September 07

Jacaranda Short film image captureTwenty years ago, when Katy and I wanted to start a new production company, Anita and Gordon gave us the chance and their support.

In subsequent years, we travelled the world – filming extraordinary people in extraordinary locations and pioneering the idea of ‘CSR communications’ long before it had been reduced to an acronym.

Two weeks ago, we finished work on a series of DVDs that tell the story of the Body Shop from Anita’s perspective. She wanted to "set the record straight," she said, "while I still have time."

They’re a celebration of the creativity and pioneering spirit that effectively changed the world of business and, we hope, a small contribution to the vast range of tributes she’s received.

Like so many others around the world, Anita, we’ll miss you.
