It's January, the start of a brand new year, and we've noticed a huge uptake in the sale of our Get Well Gift Hampers and Baskets. Perhaps this is due to the colder weather, and lowered immune systems?  Perhaps it's because lots of people of going into hospital to have operations?  Whatever it is, we are sending fruit baskets galore from our warehouse to be delivered to hundreds of homes, hospitals, clinics and nursing homes throughout the UK and Ireland !Screen Shot 2014-01-23 at 12.01.54Here at Basketsgalore we have had fun creating a huge range of Get Well Hampers and Baskets to help any poorly friend, colleague or loved one feel better in no time.   And our packaging department loves creating fruit baskets, because they are bright and colourful and smell really good.We decided that many of the traditional Get Well baskets and hampers offered by alternative suppliers were very plain and and a bit boring.  They were normally a square lidded hamper; filled with a selection of uninspiring fruits that were poorly packaged.  They were okay, but we felt that if you received one in the post it wouldn't exactly thrill the patient! With this in mind, we set to making a selection of alternative, imaginative and exciting Get Well Baskets that would really say Get Well soon!  Our Get Well baskets and hampers contain everything you can think of, and more that you couldn't even imagine. OK yes of course there is fruit, but it's not just any old fruit! It's grade 1 quality, carefully hand selected and chosen by someone with an eye for details, and very high standards - we call her Mother!  Throw into the mix your choice of this months edition of the UK's most popular glossy magazines, a good book, some mind boggling puzzles and gadgets, a few  radio controlled helicopters and some pampering lotion and potions and bobs your Uncle you've got the most exciting and inspiring Get Well gift basket imaginable.The best bit about what we do is that we solve problems, and sometimes our customers are kind enough to get in touch say thank you.   We absolutely love receiving feedback, because it shows as that we are still getting things right, and also lets us know that although we have grown massively, the core philosophy of our business remains the same, to provide an unrivalled personalised gift service that connect ex-pats around the world with their loved ones on important occasions.We recently received a testimonial from a customer describing her little grandson's reaction to the custom designed gift basket she created for him on createyourowngiftbasket.co.uk'A very sick little boy made very happy by Baskets Galore. I recently purchased a basket for my nephew in hospital and I just don't know where to start with the praise I have for this company. I decided to create my own basket but was unsure of some items to choose. I rang them and they could not have been more helpful, even passed me on to someone who had child of same age to discuss books. One of the items I chose was a bunny which brought tears to my sister when it arrived. shutterstock_102474032 My little nephew cuddled it straight away and said it was so "cute" but most of all he didn't mind it touching his sore skin because it was so soft. He has not left it out of his arms since. I was just so happy to hear what effect the hamper had. The staff in the hospital all gathered at his room to watch the excitement. I believe the presentation was unbelievable. At one point I wanted to check where the hamper would be delivered to in the hospital and once again a quick phone call to Baskets Galore and they had a speedy follow up with courier for me. I would highly recommend baskets galore from the quality of gifts, the personal touch and the delivery of the hamper. My sister immediately went on website as she was so impressed and will be using them for sure.  Fantastic company who I most definitely will not forget and will use again and would like to send a huge huge thank you to you all.'So, remember to call upon us the next time there is someone in your family, a colleague or a friend who is feeling a bit under the weather.  We're are confident that we can put a smile back on their face with a get well Gift Basket.Remember, if you purchase a Hamper or Basket from us, we would love to hear your thoughts on it.  We appreciate and welcome all feedback as it helps us to improve and continue to offer you our customers the best gift baskets and hamper delivery service in the UK & Ireland.To inspire you further remember that we offer a £5 credit voucher for every review posted to ReviewCentre.com, and new for 2014 is our reward points structure for reviews on the product you have purchased posted to our website.Screen Shot 2014-01-23 at 12.00.57
