Where does the time go?

I can't believe that we've just gone past the longest day. Although as we're getting requests for teachers' gifts, I realise it is nearing the end of the summer term and all the little ones will be moving on to new classes and new schools.

Our most popular gift is still the bath blaster bonanza for female teachers

and for the male teachers, our bamboo stripy socks go down a storm!

So today we've been busy selecting which Gift Tins to take on Friday to a fantastic NSPCC event which is being held at the Gosforth Marriott hotel. Esther Rantzen is the guest of honour and keynote speaker and I expect it to be a really interesting day with some great speakers and discussion. We support the NSPCC here as they do some fantastic work. We give an annual donation to them and at events like this, we give them 50% of our profits to help with their work.

As a small business, it's really nice to be able to work with charities and donate to them, It helps local people find out more about Gift in a Tin, but it just is really nice to work the local committee - some lovely ladies, who work very hard for the charity.

So let's hope all goes well and we have a packed audience, and if you already have a ticket, see you there!
