Every candle supports three charities

Charity sits at the heart of Warm Remedy. Every sale supports Legend on the Bench, Combat Stress and Veterans In Need, and our goal is to fund one self-illuminating suicide prevention bench every year.

OUR YEARLY GOAL

One bench

every year, at around £2,300 each

Each Legend on the Bench bench lights up at night and carries QR codes and phone numbers for 24/7 crisis support. Every candle you buy brings the next one a little closer.

SUICIDE PREVENTION CHARITY

Legend on the Bench

Legend on the Bench installs benches in parks and public spaces across the UK and Ireland, each one a beacon of hope with crisis support built in. Mike is part of the charity team, and has helped bring benches to Godalming and St James's Park in London.

Veterans' mental health charity

Combat Stress

Combat Stress is the UK's leading mental health charity for veterans, and the charity Mike credits with saving his life. It's where aromatherapy first became part of his recovery. Every year Mike attends the Combat Stress Christmas Fair, and all profits from the evening go to the charity.

Veterans In Need

Mike founded Veterans In Need in 2016 and still runs it today. It is one of the UK's best known resource websites for the Armed Forces community, and Warm Remedy sales help keep it running.
