Why it matters
Choose a direction that suits them, then write a kind note. The gift keeps them company; the card says who it's from.
Once you know they are unwell. The quiet days after the first visitors are when a gift means most.
Something gentle: you care, and they can take their time. The card assistant can shape a couple of lines.
A co-worker off sick, a relative on the mend or a friend taking it slow; let what they can enjoy guide you.
Put the hospital and the ward and room in the address; hospitals decide what food and flowers they accept.
Long-distance care
Buy online from home or abroad and leave delivery to us. The calendar in the builder shows what's available.

Once you order, we assemble the basket from your answers: the recipient, the direction, the budget and any additions.
Picking, arranging and wrapping all follow what you asked for.
Baskets are quality-checked, wrapped for travel and sent off.
Some fresh or seasonal items may be substituted without changing the design, size or value.
We work with what is on hand at the time, inside the choices you made.
