katie’s mission

Being Human Well Paper started life as Cheeky Mantwa; a greeting card and stationery design house first launched in 2001 by the founder, Katie Mantwa George when she was a teenager. She sold her designs in her mother’s gift shop in London. At the time, the card collection was called Sticky People, based on a stick drawing of Katie’s beautiful sister, with her long curls blowing in the wind. After 20 years in hibernation, Katie re-launched the brand in 2020. Cheeky Mantwa re-emerged as a sustainable, joyful, luxury, minimalist design house, allowing you to say the words you want to say. Sticky People featured in the first Cheeky Mantwa collection paying respects to little teenage Katie’s dream, but since then, Katie has designed sustainable stationery for clients and for her own well-being business (www.beinghumanwell.com).

Sustainability

When Cheeky Mantwa was founded, Katie wanted to ensure only the most sustainable materials and production partners were used in the UK and that designs were inclusive and joyful, always. All paper used is luxurious matte FSC Certified* or 100% recycled paper with traditional letterpress print. 100% recyclable postage and packaging, including biodegradable stickers.
Letterpress printing is the printing method with the lowest carbon footprint in comparison to other printing methods and due to the way it embosses the paper, it’s also beautiful and perfectly luxurious!
 
*FSC Certified means a product derived from wood/trees has been made to meet the requirements of the Forest Stewardship Council. A globally recognised certification. This is a fab thing to be!
