Now I know I’m no Bob Geldof or Mother Teresa but when I started Jellybean in 1987 with a mighty team of 2 (me and a PA) not only did I want to brave the waters of building a successful new business, I also had a vision to make a small difference to the world at the same time. That’s why Jellybean has always supported children around the world through Plan International and during our 31 years in business we have helped literally hundreds of children in underprivileged countries around the globe.

Jellybean is working in partnership with Plan International UK to fund the construction of five school buildings in the Gambella region of Ethiopia.
