Other than the gift of time spent with your grandparents the next best thing is a thoughtful hamper. Hampers are a great thing to gift to an elderly relative, especially your much-loved granddad and grandma. So choose something that they really love or surprise them with a luxurious gift experience. An afternoon cream tea outing is an opportunity to get dressed up even better if you make it a family occasion. Old-fashioned sweets are great for reminiscence and will bring a smile to their faces too.

Christmas Hampers for Pensioners

Hampers are a popular gifting choice as the festive season approaches. Christmas Hampers come in all sorts of varieties and are presented in traditional wicker baskets, trays or gift boxes.

Easy-to-eat food items are key when selecting a hamper for seniors and OAPS. This may mean hamper food with no nuts or hard toffees and including no-added-sugar goodies instead. With such varied Christmas hampers available there’s something for everyone and all occasions.

Build Your Own Retirement Hamper

Once you have browsed the types of hampers for the elderly why not try building your own hamper? You will be able to tailor the hamper to suit any age or occasion and bring a personal touch to your selection. Building your own hamper for someone who is retiring can be fun too. Especially if you know them well because you can include humorous age-related gifts. Plus of course, adding some delicious food and drink to congratulate them on reaching this lifetime milestone. There is plenty of retirement gift inspiration and hamper ideas from wine, Champagne, beer, port and alcohol-free hampers for him or her.

Speciality Diet Hampers

It is not always easy to find food gifts for someone with food allergies or intolerances. Fortunately, nowadays there are speciality diet hampers for those with a restricted diet. These speciality diet hampers allow the recipient to indulge on Birthdays, Christmas and any other celebratory occasion. You will find diabetic hampers, vegan and meat-free vegetarian hampers plus gluten-free hampers. Alternatively, you can go the non-food route and choose a gardening gift, pamper hamper or a beautiful bouquet of flowers.
