“After many happy years looking after Hay Hampers customers, I wanted to write to you myself. Joining the Virginia Hayward family was not a decision taken lightly — but having seen how they work, how they pack, and how much they care about getting every single gift right, I genuinely believe our customers gain far more than they lose. I’m staying right here, and I’ll be making sure everything you’ve come to expect from us carries on. If you ever have a question, you know where I am.”

You might be wondering…
What’s happening to the hamper range?
It’s had a refresh — and we think you’ll like it. The site now carries a hand-picked collection from the Virginia Hayward range: cheese & wine slates, luxury baskets, wine cases from a single bottle to a full twelve, and plenty more, all hand-packed at our Dorset home. The range will keep growing between now and Christmas. If a past favourite of yours is missing, tell us — we’ll point you to its nearest match and pass the request to our buying team.
Do I need to do anything with my account or existing orders?
No. Your account, order history and any orders already placed continue exactly as before. Gift cards bought previously remain valid and will be honoured in full. Nothing is required from you.
Why are you asking me to sign up again?
With a change of ownership, we think the right thing to do is ask afresh rather than assume. Signing up again means you’ll be first to see the new range as it grows — and it comes with 20% off your next order as a thank you.
Where can I use my 20% code?
Right here at virginiahayward.com, across the whole new collection — and with free standard delivery now included on every hamper, it goes further than ever.
Will prices or delivery change?
No changes to how you order — and delivery actually gets better: free standard delivery is now included on every hamper, and being part of a larger family means better stock and more delivery capacity at peak times.
