Currently we are supporting “Caroline’s Rainbow Foundation” (UK Registered Charity number 1095766) that promotes safer travel for young people.

The foundation have created a Safer Travel App that is totally free and an easily accessible source of essential information about travel destinations around the globe. It’s packed with specific information about tourist and backpacker destinations, providing travel safety tips as well as suggesting must-see highlights and attractions. There are also a number of helpful website links and interactive maps included, along with information about local and annual events and other practical tips.

A live feed provides users with up-to-date information on current affairs and currency exchange rates. The app also includes push notifications, offering real-time updates about anything significant happening in the country. If you know of any family or friends who are planning on travelling abroad, whether it be to travel or just simply going on an annual holiday, please share the link with them as it is not only an essential guide to safety whilst abroad but a wealth of information at your fingertips wherever you may be. All profits from the sale of clothing in our fundraising collection (and on items with the Carolines Rainbow logo at the top of the item description) will go to help raise money towards this deserving charity that was set up in memory of Caroline Ann Stuttle who was tragically killed whilst travelling on her gap year in Australia.

You can download the app for free at the official Apple Store  or read more about this great charity on their website. http://www.carolinesrainbowfoundation.org

If you would like to add a little something to help anyway, you can choose "Donate" from the fundraising drop down at the top of the page or go directly to their official donation page at virginmoneygiving

Please share this and make people aware.

Thank you and travel safely x
