The British Beauty Council is a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to solving beauty’s shared challenges.

Acting as the first industry-wide organisation committed to lobbying legislative issues with policy-makers, the organisation works to engage the sector to raise the reputation of the industry.

The organisation works to future-proof the industry via policy-driven initiatives encompassing four main pillars: Policy & Influence, Talent & Careers, Trade & Export, and Investment, Innovation & Technology

Members comprise influential and inspiring hair, beauty and wellness industry figures who work collaboratively to ensure its strategic goals and objectives are achieved.
