For over 10 years we've helped our customers send special gifts to family, friends and colleagues. We are here to help.
For more than ten years, Sending Hugs has helped families, friends and workplaces send meaningful gifts during life’s most difficult moments.
Our mission has always been simple: To make it easier to show someone they’re loved, remembered and never alone.
Whether you’re sending a sympathy hamper, memorial keepsake, get well gift or personalised care package, we believe even the smallest act of kindness can leave a lasting impact.
A sympathy hamper, memorial keepsake or personalised care package offers a meaningful alternative to flowers. While flowers naturally fade, thoughtful gifts such as comforting tea, candles, books, heat pillows, self-care products and remembrance keepsakes can continue providing comfort and support long after delivery.
Absolutely. Many grieving families say ongoing support is most meaningful once the initial wave of visitors and flowers has passed. A thoughtful gift weeks or even months later can remind someone they’re still being thought of.
Popular care packages often include soothing teas, candles, books, nourishing skincare, bath products, comforting snacks and a heartfelt handwritten message. Choosing items that encourage rest and self-care can help your recipient feel genuinely supported.
