After years of hard work, the time for a well-deserved rest has finally arrived: the long awaited retirement. Retirement is something many of us look forward to and is. at the same time, the beginning of something new. People close to retirement have many expectations and plans, such as travelling, spending time with their family and enjoying their hobbies. At the same time, leaving your job for good can be difficult. Suddenly your routine changes, you are no longer in contact with colleagues who may have become important to you, and you’ll need to find new ways to fill your days. The bonds are often what is most missed when you leave work - the laughter, the days spent together and the sense of unity that is created in a working environment. Therefore, if you are looking for a retirement gift, it is important to create a unique gift that makes the recipient feel appreciated humanly and for all their hard work.
When choosing a gift for a retiring colleague, it's a good idea to involve all of the colleagues in the department or the people closest to them. This will give you a much larger budget and allow you to buy an impressive gift to thank them for everything. A personalised bottle of champagne with a thank you message or a set of engraved wine glasses are both great options. With more time on their hands, your colleague may be better able to explore their culinary interests. Why not personalise a beautiful kitchen accessory? There are several personalised gifts to choose from, such as a leather apron or an engraved chopping board.
A good boss is a gift in themselves, someone for employees to look to for leadership. It can be difficult to say goodbye to a good boss, especially if they have been with the company for a long time. There are many ways to thank your boss, for example with a nice personalised fountain pen, or with personalised jewellery such as an engraved necklace or a pair of cufflinks. Don't forget to include a card with your gift. You can write it and have it signed by all colleagues involved in the gift, or you can create a personalised greeting card with a fun photo.
Teachers are a fundamental part of the education of children from childhood to adulthood. There is nothing better than finding a teacher who loves their job and passes on their passion for their subjects to children. Saying goodbye to these kinds of people is even harder, because we already know how much we will miss them. Some teachers are remembered for a lifetime. If you're looking for a gift to thank your child's much-loved teacher who is retiring or to wish them the best for their future, why not go for a unique present that shows how much they’ve meant to everyone? You probably have a class photo or an object from a school trip. You can use it to create something unique, such as a wooden greeting card with a message or a photo clock for their wall. You may have many good memories but no photos to show for them. In this case, you can choose a beautiful engraved tea or coffee mug, so that every time the teacher will be reminded of their former students every time they sip their favourite drink.
