25 Best Get Well Soon Gifts 2021: Hampers, Flowers, Books & Treats

Publish date: 2024-04-25

Get well soon gifts are - unfortunately - *very* often searched for in winter: the season of fabulous coats, cosy nights on the sofa, long country walks, coughs, sniffles, colds and the flu. Oh, and that little pandemic known as Coronavirus which, as we’ve hit the winter months, has seen more cases daily than previously ever recorded in England. Wonderful. Whether it’s Omicron, flu or another illness, it's likely you’ll know a fair few people in need of a get-well gift box in the coming weeks. 

Get well soon gifts can seem like a relic from our generations passed; along with handwritten thank you cards and homemade presents. The humble get well soon gift is a gesture that, over time, has fallen by the wayside - replaced by a quickly fired-off ‘get better soon xx’ text. But now, due to the pandemic making us realise how fragile our health can be, the gesture of sending a "thinking of you" gift to someone who has fallen ill is a trend that’s on the increase. If you’ve ever been on the receiving end of such a pressie, you’ll know just how much it’s appreciated – no matter how small.

But as we continue to try our best to social distance, there's no popping over to take your COVID-infected friend a bowl of chicken soup of a bunch of flowers. So, you'll need to get adding gift hampers, pamper gifts, letterbox gifts, care packages, sweet treats and teddy bears to your checkout and selecting "next day delivery". That said, there are tonnes of get well soon gifts on the market (Google throws up more than a billion (!) results) - so we've whittled it down to the very best get well gift ideas to wish them a speedy recovery.

21 gorgeous letterbox gifts that are sure to make someone's day – from pamper boxes to gifts for chocolate lovers
