Sharing the BearHugs Story with February Stars
We’re so pleased to share that an interview with our Chief Sender of Hugs, Faye, is now live on the wonderful health and wellbeing blog, February Stars.
In the interview, Faye opens up about her journey of starting BearHugs whilst living with a chronic illness. It’s an honest and personal conversation, touching on the challenges as well as the motivations behind creating a business built on kindness and connection.
The Story Behind BearHugs
Faye talks about what inspired her to start a gift box delivery service in the first place. BearHugs was created from a simple but powerful idea, to help people send comfort and care when they can’t be there in person.
She also shares more about the support she received from The Prince’s Trust in those early stages. That support played a huge role in turning an idea into a real business, and it’s something that continues to mean a great deal.
Alongside this, the interview explores how Faye manages her health while running BearHugs. It’s a reminder that building something meaningful doesn’t always follow a straightforward path, and that it’s okay to do things at your own pace.
A Big Thank You
A huge thank you (and a big bear hug) goes to Donna at February Stars for such thoughtful questions, kind words and ongoing support.
