"Bee Forever is a small but growing candle and diffuser company set up in memory of my late partner Holly, who received the most amazing care during her stay with St Helena.
During our time of need, I was amazed at how much St Helena did with so little. It is an invaluable service they provide to the local community. However, their work comes at a cost and for them to continue caring for those in need, they require as much help as possible. It is an honour to be a corporate member supporting the great work they do.
Every little helps and as our business grows we will continue to support them."
Jordan Thomas, Owner
