We're a non-profit organisation, and we exist to raise funds and awareness for charities all over the world. 

Our mission is to create a world that is fair, equal and sustainable.

Advent of Change was created by Kristina Salceanu in 2018, alongside a full time job as a fundraising initiative for friends and family. 

Quickly it caught the attention of many others and in our first year £100,000 was raised for 24 charities.

No - The Advent of Change (Trading) Ltd is a non-profit social enterprise limited by guarantee. This means that there are no shareholders taking money out of the company. Our ethos is to pass as much of the sale price of our products onto the designated charities.

We do have a small part-time team of people working for us who are – of course – paid for their time. However, the majority of the management team give their time and expertise pro bono.

Yes! We do everything we can to ensure our products are eco friendly.

Our Calendars are made in the UK from sustainable sources, are recyclable and wrapped in a biodegradable film. Our candle is made of 100% natural wax and crackers are plastic-free and recyclable.

You can find more about each product on their individual pages.

We use Royal Mail within the UK, and first class airmail outside of the UK.

Usually we ship all over the world, however due to the huge difficulties we've faced due to both Covid19 and Brexit, sadly we've had to postpone international shipments for the time-being. We are working hard to try and find a solution. For any corporate or bulk orders please do get in touch, as we may be able to facilitate this ad-hoc in the meantime.

We offer free UK delivery for all order over £50. Outside of that:

- UK orders £3.50 

- European orders £6.50 

- Rest of World orders £7.50

Of course! Simply send us an email to orders@adventofchange.com and send your product back to us, within 14 days to gain a refund.

Typically Royal Mail takes 2-3 days within the UK, and we ship every Monday/Wednesday/Friday. Internationally it's 5-10 days within Europe and 7-14 for the Rest of the World.

Unfortunately we are seeing worldwide postal delays due to the COVID19 pandemic. For the sorting centres affected by this, deliveries in the UK can take up to 10 days, within Europe 2 weeks and 3 weeks for the Rest of the World.
