Billed as “a hug in a box”, Buddy Box is a thoughtful way to show those who are suffering from depression and anxiety (or simply going through a difficult time) that you care. Completely gender-neutral, it contains useful and supportive products to encourage self-care; whether purchasing it for yourself or as a gift for your loved one.

Profits are used by Blurt to provide peer support for those suffering from depression. They are able to support those affected by depression and work with 152 schools and 4 home educators this academic year at no cost to them with our mental health education programme – because of BuddyBox.

A monthly pick-me-up containing at least 5 quality products hand-picked to nourish, inspire, and encourage self-care.

7 OF THE BEST MAGICAL AND MEANINGFUL SELF-CARE BOXES AS CHRISTMAS GIFTS…

There are some lovely self-care boxes available on the internet which would lighten up anyone’s day especially now during these hard times. You could make one yourself or buy one. I have found some that start from £11. Some are subscriptions if you choose to do that, but you can also send a one-off box. Christmas is the perfect time to send one as it would make a lovely surprise for someone not expecting anything to drop through the letter box.

I don’t know about you but I get quite excited at the sound of something large coming through the letter box and although I have never received one of these boxes I do get my regular magazines that I have signed up to and some have some freebies in them or extra reading which makes them even heavier, and of course not all of them can fit through your letter box.

It is a fight between me and my husband as to who gets to the front door the quickest. The funny thing is that nine times out of ten the only envelopes for my husband are bills.
