It was Mental Health Week earlier this month, and thanks to our Culture Team and very own Mental Health First Aiders, we kept it simple with a picnic in the park. Giving us all a chance to go and touch some grass. Every so often, we put mental health in the spotlight at innocent to remind ourselves that not every day feels peachy. And just like we look after our bodies, we think our minds deserve the same care and attention. We offer our people 12 free virtual therapy sessions each year. But we also know it’s often the small, everyday moments that make the biggest difference. That’s why we run two mental health training programmes. One for managers and one for everyone, so that we’re all better equipped to have the right conversations and look out for each other. So, while we wait for the sunshine to properly stick around, consider this your gentle nudge. Pop to the park, kick off your shoes, and give that grass a go. Fancy joining our lot next time for a picnic and a game of rounders? Have a look at our careers page to see if there’s anything that looks like a match for you....Show more

As the story goes, back in 1998 our three original founders went to a festival with a simple idea and a big question: “Should we give up our day jobs to make these smoothies?” They put up a sign above their stall and asked people to vote by tossing their empty bottles into bins marked ‘Yes’ or ‘No’. ‘Yes’ won, and that’s how innocent was born. To celebrate that little piece of history (and all the brilliant things we do each year), we created the Bin Factor Award. It’s our way of shining a light on the year’s biggest and most successful projects, where our people cast their votes with empty bottles. Just like the old days. This year, the award went to a project based in the blender, our manufacturing facility in Rotterdam. Last year we made over 200 million litres at our Blender. The challenge? We didn’t want to stop at that, which sounds simple enough… until you realise that means more juice, more storage, and more capacity. So, we had to install extra tanks to hold all that juice. Easy? Not quite. Working around production schedules, coordinating teams across multiple areas, and managing a project of this scale takes an incredible amount of planning, precision, and teamwork. It’s a huge effort from a lot of amazing people. To everyone who made it happen, well done. You truly deserve the glory and nods of approval from your colleagues in the kitchen. ...Show more

Saturday was Positive Thinking Day. So we asked our people what keeps their spirits high, and gives them the energy to do their best work. Some of them said pain, discomfort, and a splash of sweat. Okay, they said Pilates. But when you're 78 seconds into a plank on your lunch break you'd have a tough time convincing us there's a difference. Either way, some of our most limber employees swear by it, which is why Irem, our Head of Brand and Portfolio (and qualified Pilates instructor) started a club at innocent to share her passion and its health benefits with others. That's our Pilate goers after striking a pose below. We tried their routine. Humble pie was served shortly after. For the other bunch who didn't fancy feeling their hamstrings into next week, we offer subsidised massages, 10 free sessions of online therapy per year, and other important things like a wellbeing room. Let us know in the comments if you have any tips of your own, and if you fancy joining the Pilates party, why not check out some of the jobs we've got going on our website (link in the comments)....Show more

Here at innocent, being natural is one of the values we hold nearest and dearest. Our drinks and people wouldn't be the same without it. So, every year we come together on what we call our 'Nature Day', to learn about fruit and veg, and to say thank you for all the hard work that goes into getting us to a billion more portions of the stuff by 2030. This year, we sent them off to Fruit Camp. Think Scouts, but with fewer bears, fancy dress, and some questionable pictures in the group chat. Don't think our nan would be pleased. Check out the video to see what our UK and Ireland bunch got up to:...Show more
