The Veterans’ candle for Phoenix Heroes
The Veterans’ candle, made by bees in support of the Phoenix Heroes.
COMMUNITY BUILDING Creating a mental health support movement across the UK!
We support our veterans, families, carers and serving members of the Armed Forces.
The Veterans’ candle is a collectors piece, shaped from pure beeswax to treasure over the years or to light if you wish as a candle for special events, to honour the fallen, to reflect on your service, to promote mindfulness amidst chaos, to ignite conversations about mental health.
The Veterans’ candle is so much more than just a candle; it is a symbol of resilience, transformation and renewal.
This pure beeswax sculpture will look great wherever you choose to place it and will bring many years of pleasure, although ornamental it can still be used as a candle and will perform brilliantly, should you choose to light it.
The original model was made using air-dried clay then cast in silicone to create a mould, subsequent pure beeswax candles are individually hand-poured in our family workshop in Somerset. made by bees - Cox’s Farm Honey Co Ltd is a veteran owned business.
Each candle is individually hand-poured by a veteran for a veteran. With the candle taking a pride of place, our hope is that it will become a conversation piece, helping to start the conversation about mental health. The Veterans’s candle is made by a veteran, the beeswax, of course is made by bees!
£3.00 from each sale is donated to the The Phoenix Heroes CIC.

Are your products Vegan?
No.
Vegans believe to harvest honey and other bee produced products is cruel, however substitute products classed as vegan are often from very questionable sources (research soy beans, GM soy bean crops, Glyphosate and deforestation).
While it is true selling products produced by bees for profit can be considered exploitation...
We are ethical, bee-centric beekeepers. Our Queens wings are never clipped, allowing them to swarm should the colony decide.
Our bees take priority when it comes to retaining their honey we never take more honey than any one colony can spare and ensure there is enough of their own honey in periods of poor weather, rain and winter.
We don’t harvest royal jelly.
Our Apiaries are limited to a maximum of four colonies to any one well stocked acre. This means more work and expense for us but helps mitigate pressure for resources on wild pollinators. Our Apiary in Steart is now limited to two colonies due to the pressure on pollinators.
We work hard to raise awareness of the plight of wild pollinators, suffering from lack of habitat, loss of wildflower meadows, lack of safe chemical-free food. We plant for all pollinators and leave areas of garden to go wild and encourage you to do the same.
If you are vegan, I salute you for putting Animal welfare above all else, but please do steer clear of US Soy bean crops.
Here's a vegan honey recipe I found, obviously won't be as good as honey from the bees and unfortunately, it does use white granulated sugar... The British Sugar Industry has lined the pockets of successive governments for decades in order to keep using the very Neonicotionoids that have caused the insect apocalypse, anyway enjoy:
