Graduation season is here! If you're looking for graduation gifts, it only means one thing – someone dear to you has done it! It is one of the biggest achievements in the first quarter of their lives and should serve as a proud moment to be held onto.

This year makes it a particularly special achievement for our graduates as they have achieved such a massive feat even with all else that's going on in the world. The pandemic has struck everyone's lives so abruptly and has put a huge halt on celebrations and graduation ceremonies, stealing away such a huge milestone moment.

It has been a truly unique academic year, with students ending their academic lives under unique circumstances. Let them know their achievements have not been forgotten about and express how proud you are of their hard-work, perseverance, and dedication even in the face of so much uncertainty. Here is our guide to gifting graduates.

Firstly, cards!

A card will always serve as a simple reminder of how proud you are of your graduating loved one and is something that they can look back on to remind them of how proud they made you.

These are our pick of cards:

  • This quirky and modern Well Done Card can be personalised on the front with a message of your choice.
  • This funny Clever Clogs Card is simple in design and you can again personalise it with a message of your choice.
  • This ConGRADulations Card lets you go all out by personalising the front, back and inside of the folded card giving you lots of space to write something that will make them smile.
