This current time is so difficult. Many of us are separated from older and vulnerable parents. If you are anything like us, we are missing our mum and worried about her. We are grateful she has got a decent grasp of technology and we are able to video call regularly, but still wish there were more ways of connecting than we are currently allowed.

This time and experience has made us properly appreciate how difficult it must be to be separated from you mum outside of this difficult time, but by distance rather than isolation.

We have always enjoyed supporting our customers during International Mother’s Day, by both sending gift hampers overseas to mums abroad, but also getting requests from children living overseas to send their mum a special hamper in the UK on the International Mother’s Day date rather than the UK one.

Now, we feel we have an extra appreciation of how important these little gifts can be, at connecting you in a physical way, when you are separated.

The current situation may cause some delays in our International delivery lead-times, but we are still delivering overseas. We recommend you select a slightly sooner date as the target date to build in a little extra time for these circumstance.
