Bring the Magic of Scotland’s Social Enterprises into Your Home this Festive Season!

This holiday, make the countdown to Hogmanay truly memorable with our Scottish Social Enterprise Countdown to Hogmanay Ethical Gift Hamper, a thoughtfully curated experience that brings together Scotland’s finest social enterprises. This one-of-a-kind hamper is more than a gift; it’s a journey of stories, purpose, and Scottish spirit, crafted to keep the magic alive from Christmas to New Year’s Eve.

Each hamper includes five luxurious, hand-selected items from Scottish social enterprises. From handcrafted scents to indulgent treats, every piece is infused with a mission to uplift communities and support meaningful causes. Here’s a peek inside:

Mecoco, established in 2019, is dedicated to creating inclusive workplace experiences for disabled adults and young people, with a focus on those who require significant support. Grounded in values of inclusion and quality, Mecoco adapts every step of its processes to ensure that all individuals, regardless of support needs, can participate in meaningful work that enhances employability or simply provides a valuable experience.

The name "Mecoco" reflects its mission of fostering "meaningful contribution in the community," promoting an environment where disabled and non-disabled colleagues collaborate, forming friendships and deepening mutual understanding.

Glesga' Roasters is a social enterprise transforming coffee into a force for good, both in Glasgow and globally. By sourcing beans directly from Rwandan farmers, Glesga' Roasters supports community improvements, from education to infrastructure. Locally, coffee roasting offers individuals in rehabilitation and recovery a path to purpose and job readiness through training and mentorship. Every purchase connects customers to this mission, supporting ethical trade, community uplift, and personal growth—all through a truly exceptional cup of coffee. 

Each hamper contains two bags of coffee - one regular and one decaf.

Grace Chocolates is a social enterprise dedicated to empowering women with experience in the justice system through employability training, health and wellness support, and a nurturing environment for personal growth.

Since 2017, Grace Chocolates has helped participants gain essential skills, boost confidence, and envision brighter futures through programs like “Wellbeing Wednesdays.” Women in the program report feeling more in control of their lives, more hopeful about the future, and better supported in their journeys. By fostering self-belief and resilience, Grace Chocolates is creating pathways to positive change, helping women rebuild their lives and access new opportunities.

Each hamper contains a pack of Dark Chocolate Cinder Toffee and one dark chocolate hot chocolate stirrer - both vegan friendly!
