Corkyogis yoga mats
For every yoga mat that it sells, Corkyogis donates 10 per cent of profits to Destiny Reflection, a charity that supports survivors of sex slavery and human trafficking in Kolkata, India. The natural, eco-friendly cork mats have great grip, even during strenuous sessions. Complete the gift by adding a sari yoga mat bag made by women and girls in Kolkata. £65; corkyogis.com
