Rhimani

Rhimani offers vibrant, handmade jewellery, such as beaded necklaces and anklets, that raises funds for wildlife conservation.

During my placement year at university, I signed up to run the London Marathon 2018 for ‘Save the Rhino’. My random, sudden appetite to run a 26.2 mile race came because I was eager to raise money for African wildlife conservation. Once my spot was confirmed, before I could even think about the fact that I had to run a 26 miles, I had been set a fundraising target of £2,000.

In come the accessories.

I started creating beaded jewellery to raise money for my fundraising. I used an app to sell these wonders and called my profile ‘Rhino Beads’. Within a few months I sold everything and my worldwide ranking on the app went to 158th.

in April 2018, I completed the London Marathon and raised a total of £2,100. Why stop here though? I thought 'Rhino Beads' could be built upon.

Skip to the present and today we have traded at some awesome festivals, featured in magazines such as Vogue and Marie Claire, moved into a new HQ studio in South London and have grown into a small team!

That's how we started, now we haven't stopped.
