I bought my own mum this Name A Rose gift set for her birthday last year and realised what a fabulous gift idea it was for Mother’s Day and too.
Rather than get a bunch of flowers that’ll last a few days, get her a rose that’ll last forever!

I know chocolate sounds like such a predictable gift to give someone on St Valentine’s Day, but really, you haven’t tried chocolate until you’ve tried Chococo chocolate. It really is delicious, handmade with real dorset cream, fairtrade sourced cocoa beans and no preservatives.
So freshly made with real ingredients that they have a 2 week ‘eat by’ date on them. Not that there will be any left after 2 weeks!
