The labels of the limited supply of 250g jars boast a bold, eye-catching reinterpretation of Terry O’Neill’s famous 1973 ‘Feathers’ image of the musician. Every Marmite ‘ Rocketman’ jar will see 50p go to the charity and shoppers can get their hands on them exclusively from Sainsbury’s stores across the UK for a limited time from 2 November, for £2.65. 2022 marks a collection of anniversaries: Marmite’s 120th birthday, Sir Elton’s 75th birthday and the 30th anniversary of the Elton John AIDS Foundation. --- > “Since my dad's diagnosis I no longer take my health for granted.”[@KunleBarker](https://twitter.com/Kunlebarker?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) > has partnered with us and [@rotarywatches](https://twitter.com/RotaryWatches?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) > on the limited edition 1IN4 watch. > Together, we can beat prostate cancer.Shop > now: [https://t.co/k6PJtL8PtA](https://t.co/k6PJtL8PtA) [pic.twitter.com/kDN5IOFZcN](https://t.co/kDN5IOFZcN) > — Prostate Cancer UK (@ProstateUK) [October 29, 2022](https://twitter.com/ProstateUK/status/1586320247220486144?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) #### 1IN4 Rotary watch & Prostate Cancer UK Property expert, writer and broadcaster Kunle Barker is doing his bit to raise awareness of the fact 1 in 4 Black men will get prostate cancer.

Jollies also gave a pair of socks to a UK homeless shelter for every purchase made — according to the brand’s founder, socks are the most needed but least donated clothing item, and Jollies works with over 50 shelters nation-wide. Sales were limited, with socks available until 23 October. --- ![Cloud nine products raising funds for the Little Princess Trust](https://wfay6x. infiniteuploads.cloud/2022/10/little-princess-trust-cloud-nine.png) #### CLOUD NINE’s The Blue Collection & The Little Princess Trust Hair and beauty brand [CLOUD NINE ](https://www.cloudninehair.com/pages/the-blue-collection) recently announced the launch of The Blue Collection in partnership with [The Little Princess Trust](https://www.littleprincesses.org.uk/) charity. The collaboration forms part of the brand’s Power of Good campaign and arrives during Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.  The limited-edition collection comes in a Royal Blue colourway with the option to personalise; a velvet style case and a little thank you keepsake from The Little Princess Trust. Available in both Original and Wide Iron options to suit all hair types, the products feature kinder to hair technology, including variable temperature control and mineral-infused plates.

The “almost true” story was inspired by Westring’s move to an empty cottage in 2020. Having woken one morning to find a slug in her mug, Westring began inventing stories with her young son to relieve the stress and social isolation of pandemic lockdowns.
