Wipe out the world’s
sanitation problems 
Seeing as loo roll seems to be on
everyone’sminds right now, why not stock up online
from Who Gives a Crap – the social enterprise
dedicated to selling toilet paper made from 100%
recycled sources, and which gives 50% of its profi ts
to sanitation projects overseas? There’s been a big
run on their products recently – go fi gure – but the
organisation is working hard to replenish stocks.
The Big Issue always makes for excellent toilet
reading, might we add.
