‘I’ve been to a few events now hosted by Julie at Gifts With Presence and thoroughly enjoyed them. There is a great selection of products on offer and plenty of samples of food to try before you buy. Julie’s product knowledge is also very good which helps if you aren’t sure which products to buy.

Looking forward to the next event.’

‘A perfect combination of having your friends and family over for nibbles, chat and gift buying in the comfort of your own home.’

‘I have worked with Julie and John (off and on) for over twenty years. I have supplied bespoke images for consulting work, work at Brookfields Garden Centre and most recently for 'Gifts With Presence'.

This team are always a pleasure to work with. Consummate professionals, who come with knowledge and a smile - what a package.

One of my favourite clients.’

‘I have worked under Julie as a freelancer for her organisation for many years. Her direction and photoshoot preparation have always been exceptionally well planned out and made my working day a breeze with carefully considered briefs and sympathetic expectations.’

“I have attended a number of Gifts With Presence events and they have each been excellent. Well thought out, showcasing independent and high-quality products in an informal and friendly atmosphere. My particular area of interest is independent food manufacturers, and I can honestly say I’ve tried some of the best of British at these events. The quality of items has been superb. I’ve found both my new favourite pâté maker and cheese biscuit baker at Julie’s events. If you can bear to part with the items once you’ve purchased them, they make lovely gifts!’

‘I recently went to a gift with presence shopping event, where you could receive one-to-one shopping experience of finding some very quirky and unique products ... products that you couldn’t find on the high street...I found the event like it was home from home, warm and comforting surrounded by laughter, and socialising with friends. 

Sampling delicious food and speaking to local independent businesses is a nice personal touch... for me, I don't know a better way to spend an evening. ‘

‘Great shopping evening with a difference. Glass of wine, food tasting, fabulous gifts to buy while socialising in a relaxed environment ‘

‘The zen hideaway has been lucky enough to collaborate with Gifts With Presence on a shopping event where the customer's needs are meet mentally and physically ... 

Gifts with Presence provide the ultimate shopping experience with offerings of carefully selected products to tailor the customers’ inspiration.

With The Zen Hideaway by their side ... customers can now not only just enjoy that one-to-one shopping experience but they can fully relax by having an indulging pamper treatment too. 

What better way to enjoy an evening of being in the comfort of your own home or a loved one where products come to you and to receive a mini pamper treatment, sounds like the perfect evening.’

‘Thoroughly enjoyed my Gifts with Presence event, a fab, relaxed way to buy gifts for others and treats for myself, the chance to book a treatment with The Zen Hideaway was a lovely addition to the latest event. A great social with new friends and old. The tasting area gave me the opportunity to try unusual cheeses and pate, the range of sweet treats catered for all, Vegan, no Sugar etc. Perfect; shopping, friends, food, relaxed. Thank you, looking forward to the next one.’
