We've been busy the last few weeks working on lots of different projects (including some sneaky filming!) We wanted to share with you all what has been going on behind the scenes.
Boxlocal in partnership with Children's Hospice South West
Firstly something super special to share. We have partnered up with one of our favourite award-winning charities, Children's Hospice South West. CHSW provide hospice care for children with life-limiting conditions and their whole family. Respite and short breaks, emergency care, palliative care and end of life care at three wonderful children's hospices across the South West.
CHSW run many fundraising events, which you can check out here and one very special event that is taking place until the end of August is their The Big South West Cream Tea event. We have created a Scones & Tea Box (South West style!) especially for this fundraiser with 10% of all sales going directly to this fantastic charity.
Enjoy this great British classic at home, the park or even virtually and help to raise vital funds for local families, one scone at a time! With the Queen's Jubilee coming up, there's no better excuse! Order online or get in touch with us at hello@boxlocal.co.uk if you would like to order multiple boxes :-)
So now the big question - jam or cream first?
New Video!
We always want to showcase who we are and what we do, which is why we were super excited to work with Lucy at Lumo Videos and create our very own video!
Similar to Kate and I, Lucy is a mum of two who is just starting up her own business in video marketing. She was an absolute joy to work with and we recommend to any other businesses out there who want to do some storytelling of their own - if you like what you see drop her an email at hellolumovideo@gmail.com
Thank you also to our lovely friends Zara's Chocolates, Bristol Beer Factory, Zedify and PureComms who participated in the filming - you guys were seriously great!
If you're now inspired to send a gift box of local artisan treats, check out our Set Boxes or Build Your Own on our website!
Father's Day Boxes
Before you know it, Father's Day (Sunday 19th June) will be here and for those wanting to get ahead of the curve, our Father's Day Gifts are now available for you to buy!
How about our Cider Trio box, with three different types of totally delicious locally-made cider to enjoy - which one will be his favourite?
Or what about our special Foodie Hamper with lots of gorgeous artisan treats - some to be devoured immediately and some that can be enjoyed for time to come, it's the gift that keeps on giving!
Check out all of our Father's Day Gifts and remember you can pre-order now and select a delivery date of Friday 17th June for Father's Day Delivery (or earlier if you'd prefer!). You can also add your personalised note at the checkout which we will handwrite for you! Job's a good'un :-)
Get in touch
As always, we would love to hear from you so get in touch at hello@boxlocal.co.uk if you have absolutely any questions, feedback or just want to say hello!
