At Jack Murphy Jewellers we believe every piece we create and every partnership we foster should have meaning. That’s why our collaboration with Bolster Community and their social enterprise Acorn, is so close to our hearts.
Recently, our team had the privilege of visiting the Acorn Candles workshop to meet the talented group affectionately known as the Bolster Buddies, the wonderful adults with additional needs who handcraft each candle with love and care.
Rolling Up Our Sleeves
During our visit, we joined the Bolster Buddies in their workshop and experienced first-hand the passion and joy they put into their craft. Together, we measured, poured, and chatted about what makes their work so meaningful. The sense of pride they take in each candle was truly inspiring.
Bolster Community shared:
“Every Acorn Candle is more than a product - it’s a source of purpose, pride, and connection, helping our candle makers grow in confidence and achieve their potential. With each purchase, you’re supporting a sustainable social enterprise and giving back to our parent charity, Bolster Community, helping us empower even more families and individuals across the community. Huge thanks to Jack Murphy Jewellers for your amazing support.”
Introducing the Bridal Bouquet Candle
From that experience came our bespoke creation: the Bridal Bouquet candle, a fragrance designed to capture the joy and elegance of life’s special moments. Available exclusively in-store, it’s more than just a candle, it’s a story of teamwork, community, and impact.
And here’s the best part: every purchase gives back twice.
- We buy the candles directly from Acorn Candles, supporting their makers and enterprise.
- Then, when you purchase one in our store, profits go right back into Bolster Community’s vital services.
That means your purchase creates a double impact, helping fund opportunities and meaningful projects in the community.
More Than a Candle
Visiting the workshop reminded us that this initiative is about much more than a product. It’s about connection, opportunity, and celebrating the incredible people behind each candle. Every “Bridal Bouquet” is poured with heart, and when you take one home, you’re carrying a piece of that story with you.
Discover It In-Store
The Bridal Bouquet candle is now available in-store and online. Whether you’re gifting it to a loved one, marking a special occasion, or treating yourself, this candle spreads warmth in more ways than one.
Come and see for yourself, we’d love you to join us in supporting Bolster Community and the amazing Bolster Buddies.
