Form’s Sustainable Christmas Gift Guide 2020
And just like that, it is Christmas time! This year celebrations will be different, and while the focus will be on the people we get to share the special moments with, we still love to get a little pressie for our loved ones. With that in mind we’ve put together a gift list of our favourite sustainable items - so that no matter how much you spend or who you gift, you have options that are a bit less harsh on the planet!
Stocking fillers £5.00 and under
Love Cocoa Chocolate Bar - £4.50
Founded by James Cadbury - the great, great-grandson of the Cadbury founder - Love Cocoa offers delicious chocolates in gorgeous recyclable wrapping.

Beyond its amazing eco credentials, the chocolates are delicious and make a perfect stocking filler!

Soap bars - £5.00
Welcome to 2020, where we all wash our hands almost as much as we check instagram - or at least we should! Since the start of the pandemic there has been increased onus on keeping our hands clean, so naturally, we all want soap! Instead of hand wash though, why dont you go old school and get a loved one a gorgeous bar soap? Not only does the Artisan Soap Company make beautiful soaps from ethically sourced ingredients, they are also wrapped in sustainable packaging and made in the UK.
