Elaine Keep

Love and appreciate your team? With Lifestyle Gift Cards, there are endless ways to show it! If you want to give small Christmas gifts to employees under £50 that they will actually appreciate it; we can help.


When you give your employees the Lifestyle Gift Card, they get the choice of over 200 brands. You can also make it your own, with free personalisation and styling, while getting all the perks of tax-free gifting for gift cards up to £50!

But what can they get with The Lifestyle Gift Card? We searched high and low at the amazing brands on offer to see what might be on their Christmas wish lists.


For the office foodies:


Let's kickstart the small Christmas gifts for employees with a pressing question. Are you an employee based in the British Isles, or do you employ people within this region? If so, you must legally ensure your people drink at least 3 cups of tea daily to ensure their happiness. Decaf is acceptable, but adding too much milk may be a sackable offence.(*)


This lovely Barnham mug - £10 from The White Company feels premium, is made from Portuguese clay and has the perfect handle position for a dream hold. Bottoms up. Prefer a set? We love the Time for Tea gift set - £25 from So Just Shop, a premium set and an excellent choice for ethics and aesthetics. An exquisite balance of the finest-quality loose whole-leaf Assam black tea, Peppermint Tea and yummy Madagascan dark chocolate.


Is chocolate the bit they will like most? The award-winning Hotel Chocolat set will surely be a hit with anyone, and this chunky gift of 15 batons in 70% dark chocolate looks premium. It will be gone before you've even said your seasonal farewells. Everyone will also like this 'Let me drop everything and work on your problem' mug - £10 from Burtons, which needs no explanation!


Do they like to cook? They will love to explore B&M's Heat and Eat range, starting from £20. The options include everything from DIY breakfast muffins to waffles and pancake creations.


They may need some new glassware. Wayfair offers elegant Highball Tumbler Glasses at £11.40 each, ideal for cocktails, hot chocolate, or smoothies; they're a versatile and inclusive choice. They'll also love The Biskery's Personalised Photo Biscuits, starting from £4.50 each—because who wouldn't appreciate a sweet treat with a personal touch?


Can't cook, won't cook? They'll love a Three Course Meal for Two at a Gordon Ramsay Restaurant for £48 from Buyagift.


Great for remote workers:


For home bods, you need to think neutral and calming. This white candlestick holder, £25 from So Just Shop, can fit a stick candle or a tea light and makes a beautiful gift. It's also hand-carved in Nairobi from soapstone, which is all sustainably sourced for a nod to your ESG targets. Is their home less zen than they'd like? They may prefer these JLab GO Air Pop In-Ear True Wireless Earbuds- £24.99 from Argos, perfect for remote work or play. With 32+ hours of playtime, a slim case and water resistance, they are a great choice, and they come in a mix of colours suitable for every personality.


Another easy treat is this lovely planner, the ideal gift for someone who always promises to be well-organised in the year ahead! They may plan to start a new hobby. Help them out! Hobbycraft has great-value starter craft kits that make a nice gift for employees. We saw a felted sausage dog that intrigued us, but there's a craft kit for everyone, from painting sets to building your own (miniature) racecars.


To make a cosy pad, they could get this £15 salt lamp from Boots and team it with Habitat's Electric Diffuser, priced at £25. Do they love a coffee? They may want the Bialetti Moka Express Hob Espresso Coffee Maker, a steal at £46 from John Lewis. It's a favourite among coffee enthusiasts, delivering exceptional flavour and easy maintenance. As you can see, we are all about warm treats, and this Cosy Wool Throw from H&M at £24.99 is a chunky and stylish option. To add some flair to any room, they may love Dunelm's Succulents with Sand, priced at £17, to add a touch of greenery to any room.


Great for the company fashionista:


Whether they love fashion or don't know a Gucci from a Pucci, everyone will love the Pier One Micro Unisex Beanie Hat, £9.99 from Zalando. For your ESG targets, you'll love these are made with 50% reclaimed material that would otherwise end up as waste. For a cosier look, these Fluffy Highland Cow Socks - £10.50 from fatface, are a lovely choice, and we thought utterly perfect for the small xmas gifts for employees range.


We also love this Coconut Lane cardholder, especially if they are braving public transport or have a security card they need to learn not to lose! Another treat is this custom vintage look cap -£21.95 from notonthehighstreet that you can brand and customise. With a premium heavyweight washed-out style, it's on trend for Summer 24! Everyone needs a pair of warming cashmere gloves like these from John Lewis for only £35. We also got very excited to see the great price of TK Maxx's Hugo Boss Notebook Holder, £44.99, an A6-sized cover in a beautiful neutral tan.
