If you are suddenly finding you have some extra time, why not use that time to record some stories of your life. It's SO important for future generations and also great for you. Writing down events, happy and sad, can help you to work through them, allowing you to reflect on things you can be grateful for and letting go of those things that you found difficult.
For many years we have been creating and selling Memories books - full of questions and prompts for you to record details of your life for those you love, quickly and easily. All make wonderful keepsakes, and are as much of a pleasure to complete as they are to receive.
In this time of enforced restricted contact, connections between families have been identified as one of the things that we are all really missing. Our Stay Close sets were created for just this situation - after all it's widely acknowledged that the power of touch has an amazing ability to calm and heal. Why not send someone you love a beautiful tactile heart to remind them how important they are to you?
We are proud to be able to offer a range of products designed to help you stay connected.
Memories books
Our classic range of Memories Books, designed to capture and preserve your memories for furture generations.
"What the next generation will value most is not what we owned, but the evidence of who we were and the tales of how we loved."
I can honestly say it was one of the best gifts ever. I sat enthralled as I read and read. I couldn't put it down. I can't believe that in my mother's memories there were things I'd never known. I hope many other people discover the special magic that your memory books hold - mine is my most prized possession.

I just wanted to say thank you for the books and to say how pleased I am with them. They are absolutely brilliant and I'm sure we will all thoroughly enjoy completing them. The sections allow enough space to write enough without feeling under pressure to write too much.
My father was so pleased with his memory book from his Grandchildren on Father's Day. He thought it was a wonderful idea...

Worth more than gold and diamonds to me is a book of life memories completed by my father who has since passed away. To me it is literally priceless. The book contains lots of ready to answer questions which act as fantastic triggers to unlock memories that might otherwise be lost forever. I think everyone should complete a memories book like this - they bring family trees to life.
Edward
Thank you so much for my priceless treasure. It is absolutely lovely. It brought tears to both myself and my mum's eyes when we saw it. What a lovely present. I am delighted...
Anita
A friend at my children's school had bought a memories book from you for her mother last Mother's Day. Her mother then sadly died suddenly. When going through her mother's effects, she found the book and her Mother had completed it. It has brought her much comfort and she has found other things about her mother that she never knew.
Bernice
Thank you so much for the beautiful book of memories. Now that I'm leaving GMTV, I'll have time to fill in the questions! Thank you so much - it's a lovely idea, and something to really treasure.
Fiona Phillips
My sister has received her memories book and loves it. She said it made her cry before she's even filled any of it in.
Allison
Much appreciated, as my wife died unexpectedly not long after completing it.
John Littler
I think the books are brilliant, just the right size not to lose interest in and so easy to fill in.
