Ethical Gifts For Father’s Day

I am the queen of missing crucial occasions. It’s my nephew’s birthday next week, yet I still haven’t given him last year’s card! Being a blogger, I constantly receive reminders of key events from PR companies for which I’m very thankful. They haven’t let me forget it’s Father’s Day on Sunday 18^th June. Yes that’s next Sunday! So if you’re last minute like me, then here are a few ethical gifts for Father’s Day:

Ethical Gifts For Father’s Day

Ross & Ross

Ross & Ross are a small multi award-winning fine food company based in the Cotswolds. They do fantastic affordable hampers perfect for Daddies. All items in their hampers are either made by themselves or are from local producers. Check out their Homemade Curing kits, and their seasonal BBQ kits. Dr. Husband is getting a BBQ Hamper – Original, which contains rubs, jam, oil, salts and sauces. My favourite being the Sweet Ribs Rub for Pork, though I know Dr. Husband will love their Smoky Chilli Chipotle Jam. Use code karen10 for 10% off.

Jollie Socks

Dr. Husband is a very particular about his socks, only bright fun socks will do and I love to steal them! Trousers are always worn rolled up to show off his particular sock of choice. But don’t worry if colourful socks aren’t your thing, they also have some more sensible ones in their twister range. Jollie Socks have the added benefit that for every pair bought, a much more sensible pair are given to someone homeless. They also create work opportunities for those transitioning out of homelessness.
