Why it helps

Comfort that arrives at their door

Pick a direction that suits the household, then write what you want them to know. The gift makes the gesture; the card says why.

When to order

Whenever you hear. Early gifts help the household; a later one, when fewer people are calling, can mean just as much.

The message

That you are sorry, that you are thinking of them, and a memory if you have one. Short is kind; the card assistant can assist.

For anyone grieving

Families, friends, colleagues and neighbours. Choose to suit them; comforting food and tea are the most popular.

Reaching the right person

Give the recipient's name and a note for whoever answers the door in the delivery step.

What Your Budget Changes

Set a figure and we fill the basket to match. Anything extra is charged at its listed price on top.

A thoughtful gesture

One direction for the gift, then your notes and spend settle the details.

Make it personal

Share preferences, include a card and add whatever extras suit.

Review every detail

See the budget, the extras, the quantity and the pre-tax total together before you order.

The making of it

Made to your brief

Your answers in the builder become our instructions, and the basket is made up fresh for this order alone.

Selected for your choices

The contents are hand-picked to your answers, then packed and wrapped.

Reviewed before dispatch

Every basket gets a last look before packing and dispatch.

Substitutions

We may swap a seasonal or perishable item; the overall design, size and value hold.

What may vary

Brands and flavours can vary week to week; your answers still lead.
