Send A Get Well Package Delivered By Post With BearHugs

Written by BearHugs Digital Marketing Assistant, Kelly Reid.

When a loved one is ill, we want nothing more than to support them and help them feel a little bit better. As a person with a chronic illness, receiving a Get Well Package in the post always brings a smile to my face, and can be just what I need to help me through a tough health day.

At BearHugs, we offer a wide range of thoughtful gifts, all packaged in our signature ‘consider this a BearHug’ gift box for a super cosy hug in the post. Whether your loved one is a foodie fan, a pamper lover or needs something to keep them busy, you can create a thoughtful gift to put a smile on their face and bring them a little cheer while they recover.

Foodie Gifts For Your Get Well Package

When you’re sending a Get Well Package to a loved one, it can be tricky to know what food gifts to include. If someone is unwell, they may not be able to eat very much, or may even be on a restricted diet. That’s why one of my favourite food gifts to receive is a hot drink.

Whether it’s a fancy tea, an extra nice coffee or a hot chocolate stirrer (we have dairy-free ones of these too!), they’re a lovely way to bring a little joy to someone’s day without upsetting their body.

If you’re excited to send a food gift, then easy-to-eat snacks like biscuits, nuts and savoury snack packs are also great. They can be eaten a little at a time and add a little extra yumminess to your loved one’s day.

The important thing is to think about the person you’re sending to. If you know they have dietary restrictions or particular foods they struggle with when they’re unwell, a little consideration can make your gift feel all the more personal.

Cosy Gifts For Your Get Well Package

When you’re stuck in bed recovering from an illness, cosy treats are essential! Whenever I’m having a bedrest day, a few cosy treats can really make me feel more relaxed and help me to rest up faster.

My personal favourite cosy gift is a pair of BearHugs socks. These are the softest, most comfortable socks I’ve ever worn, and their fun patterns put a smile on my face every time I pull them on!

Or, why not send your loved one a cosy candle to create a restful environment at home? I find these especially helpful in winter to make the shorter days feel a little cosier when I’m unable to get outside.

We also have a whole host of lovely pampering gifts, from face masks and bath bombs to essential oil rollers, perfect for adding a little self-care to a difficult day.

The Final Touches

Sometimes it’s the little things that make a get well gift feel really special. All of our hug in a box gifts come with the option to add your own personal message, so you can include a few words of encouragement alongside the treats inside.

If you’d like a little help choosing, our Get Well Soon collection brings together gifts chosen with poorly loved ones in mind, so you can browse without having to build the perfect package from scratch.

If you haven’t found quite what you’re looking for yet, then check out our Build Your Own BearHug page to see the full array of thoughtful gifts that you could include in your get well package. You can also take a peek at our Ready To Go gift boxes and see if anything takes your fancy!

Whether you choose something ready-made or put together your own combination of treats, the important thing is that your loved one knows you’re thinking of them. Sometimes a little BearHug through the post is just what they need.

A Little About BearHugs

We love helping people send all the warmth and comfort of a hug from afar.

When you order a ‘hug in a box’ gift hamper, you can add extra personal touches such as your own message. Every BearHugs gift box is hand-packed with love and then popped in the post so it can be sent directly to a doorstep of your loved one. 

We’re really proud of our signature 'hug' gift boxes which reveal outstretched paws and a ‘Consider this a BearHug’ message on opening. They never fail to make us smile and we love hearing that they’ve made recipients smile too.
