In the Life Shop, we have packaged up some non-material goods (like a bit of peace and quiet or a good chat) as if they were products, so that people can buy them for themselves and for each other.
Our aim is to remind people of the importance of non-material goods in our hectic and consumerist modern lives. Click here to find out more about why we're doing this.
All the money we raise from the Life Shop goes towards funding the not-for-profit work of Life Squared.
Our 'products' make wonderful and unusual gifts – perfect for Christmas or any other occasion. At only £5 each they're affordable, will be appreciated and won't be forgotten!
The recipient of your gift will receive a personalised letter on high quality paper including an optional message from you and a card to remind them to make some time available to do the activity you've suggested.
