Meet our business besties!
We’re spreading the love this Christmas

We’re nearly there! We’re going to make it! Yes, we’re just days away from Christmas, and we’ll soon have our last parcels packed and despatched. But – when we sit back and reflect on the year, we’ll do so with mixed feelings. Yes, of course, in one way, we’ll be glad to see the back of 2020. Who wouldn’t? It’s been a pig of a year for so many people for reasons we don’t even have to mention.

But here at Ash & Dove, we’re so grateful for what has been far and away our best year ever. Thanks to the wonderful people here and our equally wonderful customers, we’ve broken so many records. Some departments have grown by as much as 500%.

It seems that we’ve been picking the right products from the right suppliers. We’re massively grateful for the support those suppliers have shown us - many of them becoming good friends along the way.

There’s another bunch of people it’s been a joy to know. Through our network of business connections, we’ve got to know numerous other gift companies just like ours. These are small ‘indies’ whose focus is on hard work, innovation, imagination, quality – all backed up with world-class customer service.

We thought we’d give a Christmas ‘shout-out’ to these good friends of ours. Here’s a selection of some of our favourite gift ideas from their websites. Why not check them out for yourself?

Women’s midnight blue lounge trousers with red & green floral design. The trousers come in variable sizes in a soft cotton fabric.  A draw-string waist tie finishes off the trousers for the perfect, casual day time look. They are set to add a piece of versatile easy-wear to your wardrobe.

Protecting girls from the sex industry
One very good reason for which we love the people at Spirited Clothes is their efforts to stop the poverty-to-sex-trade cycle. They provide skills development and employment to numerous vulnerable women in India and The Philippines. The women who sew their loungewear have been directly rescued from the sex-trade industry or have been prevented from entering it.

Well done everyone at Spirited Clothes!
