Sympathy gifts by post

When someone is grieving, it's hard to know what to say, and flowers can arrive all at once and fade. Our sympathy gift boxes offer quiet comfort instead: soft socks, calming scents, a warm drink or sweet treat and a keepsake to hold on to. They're for loss, heartbreak and any hard time when you want someone to know you're there.

Every box comes in Mini, Letterbox and Parcel sizes, with versions for him too. Mini and Letterbox gifts post straight through the door, so there's no doorbell to answer on a difficult day.

Popular picks

Our most-sent sympathy gifts include the So Sorry Letterbox Gift, the I'm So Sorry Letterbox Gift, the In Our Thoughts Letterbox Gift and, for him, the So Sorry Letterbox Gift | Him.

What to write

There are no right words, and a short message is often the kindest. "I'm so sorry for your loss. Thinking of you and sending all my love" is plenty. If you knew the person who died, a small memory of them can be a real comfort. Letting them know they don't need to reply takes the pressure off.

Free delivery and a handwritten message

Every ready-made box comes with free express delivery by Royal Mail Tracked 24. Order by 2pm, Monday to Friday, and we'll dispatch it the same day. Add your message at checkout and we'll handwrite it and tuck it inside. There's never a price or invoice in the box.

Frequently Asked Questions

What can I send someone who is grieving?

Something gentle that asks nothing of them: soft socks, a calming scent, a warm drink or sweet treat and a small keepsake, with a few kind words. A sympathy gift box is a thoughtful alternative to flowers, with nothing to look after.

What should I write in a sympathy message?

Keep it short and honest. "I'm so sorry for your loss, thinking of you" is plenty. If you knew the person who died, a small memory of them can be a real comfort. We'll handwrite your message in any language, exactly as you type it.

Will it fit through the letterbox?

Our Mini and Letterbox gifts are Royal Mail large letter size, so they fit through a standard letterbox and no one needs to be in. Parcel gift boxes are bigger and are delivered in person by the postal carrier.

Can I send it directly to them?

Yes. Just enter their address at checkout and add a personal gift message, and we will send it straight to them. There are no prices or invoices in the box.

Is delivery free, and when will it arrive?

Yes. Every ready-made gift box comes with free express delivery. Orders placed by 2pm, Monday to Friday, are dispatched the same day with Royal Mail Tracked 24, which usually arrives the next working day.

Is it too late to send a sympathy gift?

It's never too late. A gift a few weeks or months on, or around a birthday or anniversary, shows you haven't forgotten and can mean just as much as one sent straight away.
