Very good stuff

Very good stuff. The real value isn't always obvious with some products such as the shampoos until you use them in comparison to other apparently cheaper, but poorer value, products.
The beers are winners however regardless and they, and other products on the site, make great gifts which say a lot about the giver.

Keep up the good work, just a couple of minor suggestions

I commend the work you do in supporting social enterprises and I really hope that more people can make ethical consumption choices by buying local and/or from social enterprises.

Just a couple of suggestions:
- it would be much appreciated if I could get updates on the progress of the order
- as I was getting a xmas hamper for a friend it didn't help that there was no option to leave a message with the order
Thanks very much

Excellent choice of items

Excellent choice of items. We ordered this as a prize for a work event and it went down a treat - will certainly be ordering more things from here again.

Would love to see this place expand and offer even more!

Would be 4 stars

Would be 4 stars, but part of my order didn't arrive. It was sorted after I made contact, but I shouldn't have needed to.
Otherwise, everything arrived in good quality packaging etc.
