BearHugs, BearHugs Gifts, 372 Langsett Road, Sheffield (2025)

BearHugs gift packages are perfect for saying Congratulations, Get Well Soon, Thinking Of You, Happy Birthday and just about any other reason you can think of for showing someone that you care. All boxes can be sent with a personalised note card. The idea for BearHugs was born after Chief Sender of Hugs, Faye received an especially thoughtful package from a friend just when she needed it most. Having come to terms with chronic illness, Faye wanted to start something that not only gave her a purpose, but helped to spread positivity and kindness. BearHugs' aim is to assist others to do what Faye's friend did for her - effectively send a hug even when out of arms' reach. BearHugs gift boxes can be purchased online at bearhugsgifts.com.

----------------------

For every fifty hug in a box gifts we sell, we send a personalised gift box to someone affected by life-limiting illness or disability through our Hug Nominations. Since July 2022, we opened up Hug Nominations to individuals as well as charity partnerships. This means you can nominate yourself or a loved one affected by illness or disability to receive a personalised hug in a box, and let them know they’re loved. Find out more at bearhugsgifts.com/hug-nominations.

This summer marked BearHugs’ 10th Birthday 🎈

Ten years since I first took my little business idea to The King's Trust and ten whole years of sending hugs since. There’s been a lot of ups and downs and versions of BearHugs along the way… I’m so grateful for every bit of support at every stage 🩵

Seeing as I completely forgot to shout about it at the time, I’m deciding to celebrate by sharing something that’s been ten years in the making…

BearHugs’ report, Accessible Employment & Chronic Illness: A Case Study, brings together some of what we’ve learned about creating flexible, inclusive work opportunities for people with energy-limiting chronic illness over the last decade.

Not everyone with an energy-limiting chronic illness will be able to, or wish to, work. The report focuses on improving access for those who want and are able to work, showing how flexibility and understanding can make that possible🩵

It also shows that accessible employment isn’t just good for people, it can have business benefits too 💼

Hi pals, Faye here! It’s been a long time since I’ve popped anything up on Instagram or Facebook, so thought I’d nip back in to say hello and give a quick update.

After scaling BearHugs right back to basics a while ago to better look after myself, earlier this year I was lucky enough to have my daughter, Maya Rose, arrive.

She is magic. Jared and I absolutely love her and think she’s the best.

I always found it difficult to stay on top of social media while managing my energy levels, BearHugs, and life in general. Withdrawing for a while has definitely given me one less thing to worry about feeling behind on!

Now, with little Maya in the house, it feels less likely than ever that I’ll be totally on top of it and so I just wanted to give a quick update on why I haven’t been on here and why you may see me popping in and out rather than showing up every day.

There’s so many of you I used to speak to regularly that, as I’ve pulled away from social media, I really miss getting to hear from. If anyone I’ve not spoken to in a while wants to catch up, my email inbox is still always open - I just can’t promise I’ll be that quick to reply!

As for BearHugs, the website is still up and running and I’m still sending out hugs. It’s a smaller, simpler version in a lot of ways at the moment but the same amount of care goes into every hug sent and I’m still taking Hug Nominations for people affected by chronic illness. Now there’s just an extra little pair of hands next to me while I’m working.

Sending lots of love always 🤍
