Shop with Meaning Small Business Christmas Gift Guide

Published 1 year ago. Estimated reading time: 7 minutes.

Nov 30

This year, we have come together with hundreds of small businesses from across the UK (and a few from further afield!) to encourage people to Shop with Meaning this Christmas. Shop with Meaning encompasses everything we would love people to think about during Christmas season, to make better choices for you, small businesses and the planet! It means being thoughtful about where you are buying from, shopping earlier, and focussing on the meaning behind gifts rather than falling into the ‘more is more’ habit that is often at the forefront this time of year.

To start us off on the right foot, we have pulled together a fabulous Christmas gift guide filled with recommendations from small businesses of where you can start to shop with meaning this Christmas. If you’re looking for a reason to start your Christmas shopping, let this be it! Read on for our ultimate small business Christmas gift guide, updated for 2023.
