This is part of our gift guides series for travellers, hikers and nature lovers. Where possible we have tried to choose gifts which focus on being ethical and/ or sustainable, and tried to choose as many as possible that will support small businesses. We would always encourage asking the recipient if there’s anything they would like, there’s no shame in it, it’s much better to get something they need or want and will be put to good use rather than something that’s shoved to the back of the cupboard. A sustainably bought item isn't sustainable if it's not used.
