Turning the Tide: How Lola&Lykke supports mothers worldwide

At Lola&Lykke, we believe in nurturing. We nurture new life, support mothers through life-changing moments, and champion the health and well-being of families. But our commitment extends beyond the immediate embrace of motherhood; it reaches out to the wider world.

We are committed to nurturing the planet too, and only leaving a positive footprint behind. Where we cannot replace plastic in our products, we make sure that the same volume is effectively recovered from the environment. That’s where our partnership with CleanHub comes in. This partnership is not only helping to keep our planet clean and healthy for all our little ones but also empowers women and mothers in communities far from our own.

You may know that a staggering amount of plastic waste ends up in our oceans, threatening marine life and ecosystems. What you might not realise is that over 80% of ocean plastic originates on land, often carried by rivers from inland communities to the sea. Addressing this challenge at its source is vital, and that's exactly what CleanHub does: by setting up waste management systems in coastal areas and pollution hotspots around the world, to recover plastic before it reaches our oceans.

But this partnership isn’t just about plastic; it's about people. It's about providing stable, dignified work, and offering a pathway to a better future for those who need it most. And, many of these vital roles are filled by women and mothers.

Meet Geethu in Kerala, India.

Her hands, accustomed to the daily rhythms of family life, now expertly sort through plastic waste. Before joining CleanHub, finding consistent work was a struggle for many women like Geethu. Now, she has a reliable income that allows her to send her children to school, buy them what they need, and contribute meaningfully to her household. Geethu has also been able to invest her money into running her own shop (pictured above). Her work not only cleans her community but also builds a brighter future for her family – a story familiar to mothers everywhere who strive to provide the best for their children.

Meet Fauziah Rochman in Java, Indonesia.

Fauziah is an environmental microbiologist and mother of three. She is not just collecting waste; she is a leader in her community, contributing to a vital service, and inspiring other women around her. Her daily efforts mean less plastic in the beautiful Indonesian waters and more hope for a cleaner environment for future generations – her own children included.

Meet Sujitha in Kerala, India

As a mother, her priority is clear: "My work here means that I am able to afford my children's education," she shares. Her stable income doesn’t just help her family; she notes that her workplace supports many others who come there to "send money for day to day family expenses." Sujitha's work is a powerful example of how environmental action creates immediate economic empowerment.

These women are at the frontline of environmental change. They are the people whose dedication makes a tangible difference every single day. Their work reduces plastic pollution, protects fragile ecosystems, and improves public health, while also supporting female empowerment in their homes and villages.

Through supporting Lola&Lykke, you’re not just choosing products that support your journey through motherhood. You are becoming part of a larger story of love and care that spans the globe.
