Our Charity Partner: Against Breast Cancer
Our Charity Partner: Against Breast Cancer
Since 2016, HIGHBORN has supported Against Breast Cancer, a UK charity funding vital research into secondary spread breast cancer. That support comes from Tracey’s personal fundraising – including the London Marathon – and annual donations from the business.
We don’t add a charity surcharge to your order and we don’t run a “£X per product” scheme. When you choose HIGHBORN, you are buying skincare first and foremost. As the business grows, we’re able to contribute more in support of breast cancer research.
How Your Order Helps
- Tracey raises money for breast cancer charities by taking on endurance events like the London Marathon.
- HIGHBORN makes donations each year to help fund research into secondary spread breast cancer.
- Your orders help HIGHBORN grow, which in turn increases what we’re able to give over time.
We don’t promise a specific amount per product, and we don’t add hidden charity mark‑ups to your basket. We prefer to keep pricing simple and support our chosen charities separately from what you pay at checkout.
From Against Breast Cancer
“Against Breast Cancer is delighted at the announcement of their Corporate Partnership with Highborn London natural beauty products. Against Breast Cancer would also like to acknowledge the great support from Tracey, a breast cancer survivor, who ran the 2016 London Marathon whilst receiving treatment for breast cancer. We wish Highborn London every success with their sales of beauty products and thank them for their support in raising further funds to continue vital research into secondary spread breast cancer.”
Bernadette Jones, Chief Executive, Against Breast Cancer
Tracey’s Fundraising Story
Tracey first supported Against Breast Cancer by running the London Marathon in April 2016. It was just four months after she’d been given the all-clear following her cancer treatment.
She had started training just weeks after chemotherapy and kept going through radiotherapy. On marathon day, she raised money for breast cancer research — and even beat her husband, Henry, to the finish line!
Since then, she has continued to support breast cancer causes through events and challenges, with the HIGHBORN community cheering her on every step of the way.
Remembering a dear friend
A HIGHBORN customer became a close friend of Tracey’s during her breast cancer journey. When her friend sadly died from breast cancer, Tracey wanted to do something to support her daughters.
In 2025, Tracey ran a 100 km ultramarathon along the Jurassic Coast, climbing over 2,500 metres. She took on this personal fundraising challenge to raise money for her friend’s daughters.
Tracey remains in touch with her friend’s husband and family.
Questions You Might Have
Is every purchase a donation?
No. We don’t currently run a “£X per product” or “Y% of every sale” scheme. We support Against Breast Cancer through Tracey’s fundraising and annual donations from HIGHBORN.
Do you add a charity surcharge at checkout?
No. We don’t add a separate charity fee or mark‑up to your order. The price you see is the price you pay for your skincare.
