1. The promoter
The promoter is Original Additions Ltd, trading as Cantu, of 1st Floor Charter Building, Charter Place, Uxbridge, Middlesex, United Kingdom, UB8 1JG (“the Promoter”).
2. About the campaign
Cantu’s 12 Days of Giving campaign will award a donation of £1,000 to each of 12 eligible UK-registered charities supporting Black communities, giving a total donation of £12,000.
One recipient charity will be announced each day from 1 December to 12 December 2026 inclusive. All twelve recipient charities will be selected after nominations close. The Promoter will decide the order in which they are announced, and that order does not reflect any ranking.
3. Who can nominate
Nominations may be submitted by UK residents aged 18 or over. Individuals may nominate a charity they support, and authorised charity representatives may nominate their own charity.
Employees of the Promoter, agencies directly involved in administering the campaign and their immediate families may not submit nominations.
Submitting a nomination does not entitle the person making it to receive any money or other reward.
4. Eligible charities
To qualify, a nominated charity must:
- Be registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales, the Scottish Charity Regulator (OSCR), or the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland.
- Hold an active registration at the closing date and when the donation is paid.
- Have charitable purposes for the benefit of Black communities in the UK, or carry out a substantial part of its charitable activities for their benefit. This does not need to relate to hair or hair care.
- Be able to accept the donation into a bank account held in the charity’s name.
Unregistered community groups, individuals, businesses and organisations with a pending charity registration are not eligible.
The Promoter may request reasonable evidence of registration, charitable activities and authority to accept the donation.
The Promoter may decline to select a charity that: (a) is the subject of an open statutory inquiry by a UK charity regulator; (b) has political campaigning or support for a political party as its main purpose; (c) has a trustee or senior employee who is also an employee of the Promoter or of an agency administering the campaign; or (d) carries out activities that the Promoter reasonably considers would bring the campaign into disrepute. The Promoter will make eligibility decisions reasonably and in good faith, based on the information available to it.
5. How to nominate
Complete the nomination form at www.cantubeauty.co.uk/cantu-christmas-giveaway/ between 16 November 2026 9:00 and 23:59 GMT on 26 November 2026.
Provide the information requested, including your name and email address, the charity’s name and registration number, and a brief explanation of how it supports Black communities.
If you do not know the registration number, provide sufficient information for the Promoter to identify and verify the charity.
Entry is free. No purchase, donation, social media follow, comment, tag or share is required. Social media comments alone do not count as nominations.
Please do not include confidential information or sensitive personal information about anyone supported by the charity.
6. Multiple nominations
Each eligible charity will receive one entry into the draw, regardless of how many nominations it receives. Multiple nominations will not increase its chances of selection.
A charity may receive only one £1,000 donation through this campaign. Charities registered with more than one UK charity regulator will be treated as a single charity.
7. Selection
Following the closing date, the Promoter will check nominations against the eligibility requirements.
Twelve different charities will be selected at random from the eligible charities using a computer process that produces verifiably random results, or a draw supervised by an independent person. The selection will take place on or before 30th November 2026.
The information submitted about a charity will be used to establish eligibility. Nominations will not be ranked on writing quality or popularity.
Reserve charities may also be selected using the same process.
If fewer than twelve eligible charities are nominated, or not enough selected and reserve charities are confirmed in time, the Promoter will select further eligible UK-registered charities that support Black communities so that the full £12,000 is donated. Any change will be announced on @CantuBeautyUK.
8. Contact and verification
The Promoter will contact provisionally selected charities using independently verified contact details or details supplied by an authorised representative.
Before confirming a donation, the Promoter will verify the charity’s eligibility, acceptance of the donation and bank account details.
Charities must respond within 2 working days of the first notification. The Promoter will make reasonable attempts to contact them before selecting a reserve.
If a charity declines, does not respond within the stated period, or cannot demonstrate that it meets these terms, the Promoter will select a reserve charity.
A reserve charity may be announced on a later day than the charity it replaces, but no later than 12 December 2026.
9. Donations and payment
Each confirmed recipient charity will receive one donation of £1,000.
The Promoter will process the £1,000 payment within 30 calendar days of the date on which that charity is publicly announced as a recipient.
Payment will be made by bank transfer directly to the charity’s verified bank account. “Process payment” means that the Promoter has instructed its bank to make the transfer. The date funds reach the charity’s account may depend on banking processing times.
No payment will be made to the person who nominated the charity or to a personal bank account.
No fee is payable to claim or receive the donation.
Each donation is an unrestricted gift. The Promoter will not place conditions on how a charity uses it, and the charity is not required to provide any publicity, services or other benefit in return.
10. Announcements and publicity
Confirmed recipient charities will be announced on @CantuBeautyUK and may also appear on the Cantu website and other Cantu communications.
The Promoter will agree the use of charity logos, photographs, quotations and any additional publicity with an authorised charity representative. Additional interviews or content participation will be optional and will not be a condition of receiving the donation.
The names and registration numbers of recipient charities will be available from teamcantu@cantubeauty.co.uk for 3 months after the campaign ends.
Nominators’ names and contact details will not be published without their permission.
11. Personal information
The Promoter will use personal information to administer the campaign, verify nominations, contact relevant parties and arrange donations, as explained in https://www.artheawellness.com/privacy-policy/ .
Marketing communications are optional. Choosing not to receive marketing will not affect a nomination or a charity’s chances of selection.
Personal information will be kept only as long as needed to run the campaign and handle any queries, and no longer than 12 months after the final donation is paid.
12. Fair administration
The Promoter may reject nominations that are fraudulent, deliberately misleading, submitted through automated means or otherwise breach these terms.
The Promoter will administer the campaign fairly. Any necessary changes arising from circumstances beyond its reasonable control will be communicated promptly and will not unfairly disadvantage participants.
Nothing in these terms limits any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or affects participants’ statutory rights.
13. Instagram
This campaign is not sponsored, endorsed, administered by or associated with Instagram or Meta. Information submitted through the nomination form is provided to the Promoter. Participants release Instagram and Meta from any liability connected with the campaign.
14. Contact and governing law
For campaign enquiries, contact teamcantu@cantubeauty.co.uk.
These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Participants retain any mandatory rights to bring proceedings in the courts of the UK country in which they live.
