I'm the boss of a small but amazing team. I'm leaving soon and would love a chance to tell them how fab they are. Budget not huge, poss £10 each (5 people) - can you help?

Thanks

Are they all male/ female/ similar age?
What do they teach?
You'll have to give more clues or you'll get a generic 'bottle of wine' answer!

Oooh, yes, you're right!

Mostly middle-aged, one younger girl (20's). We teach Early Years. Work hard play hard kind of team, very supportive of each other and they mean a lot to me.

I definitely don't want to get them anything generic.

You can buy engravers at Argos then engrave them a good quality hot drink flask....contigo are great for that. You don't have to be amazingly skilled to do it and it is personal.

I like the idea of personalised lidded mugs if you can use them at school. Maybe Dolly style ones would be fun.

Brilliant ideas, thank you 😃

Another thing I once did was buy aprons with zip pockets and fill them with good quality stuff they use all the time e.g. scissors, staple gun and staples blu tac! You can buy them in different colours and yes I did embroider their names on them. Personal is best!

That's amazing! Love that idea.

You could take them out for afternoon tea? A shared experience is always good...
