Last Minute Christmas Gift Ideas from The Hub at Buckshaw

Christmas just seems to have crept up on us this year. If you still have a few people left to shop for, do not panic. We have pulled together some great last minute gift ideas, sorted by who they are for and by budget, so you can find something thoughtful in a hurry. And if all else fails, a treat here at The Hub at Buckshaw always goes down well.

Last minute gifts for her

From little extras to fill a stocking to a proper main present, here are some ideas that are quick to sort and always appreciated.

Stocking fillers for her

For the everyday essentials, think makeup wipes, body butter, fake tan, shower gel, lip care, phone chargers, cosy socks and, of course, plenty of chocolate. If you want to go a little more luxe, a luxury hot chocolate with its own mug, a selection of coffees or teas, a silk pillowcase or a few Yankee Candles all make lovely treats.

A hair and beauty voucher is another easy win. It gives someone something to look forward to in January, whether that is a fresh cut, a bit of colour or a relaxing treatment. Call our salon on 01772 453435 to arrange one.

Main presents for her

If you are after something a bit special, here are a few ideas that feel like a real treat:

• A treat for the feet. A pair of UGG slippers, such as the Scuffette II or the Fluff Yeah style, is cosy, comforting and hard to beat in the colder months.
• All that glitters. Personalised jewellery, with a zodiac sign or initials, adds a thoughtful touch. Brands like Missoma are always a safe bet.
• Make some memories. An experience gift is a wonderful way to spend time together, from concert tickets or a little getaway to a fancy meal out. You could even book afternoon tea at Cappuccino, our cafe here at The Hub, with sandwiches, soup and a glass of Prosecco. Call the cafe on 01772 454287 to book.

Last minute gifts for him

The men in your life can be tricky to buy for, so here are some ideas to make it easier, from stocking fillers to a standout main gift.

Stocking fillers for him

Build the stocking around what he is into:

• The self-care stocking. Cleanser, moisturiser, beard care products, a head massager, chocolates and a few nice hot drinks.
• The sporty stocking. Nike socks, a good water bottle, protein powder, a massage ball and a phone holder for the gym or a run.
• The gaming stocking. Rechargeable Xbox batteries, a controller holder, blue light glasses and plenty of gaming snacks.

Main presents for him

For something with a bit more wow factor, try one of these:

• For the music man. Wireless earphones, a portable speaker or a record player with a couple of his favourite vinyls.
• A massage gun. Perfect for anyone who loves the gym, helping with recovery after a hard session.
• Flying high. A drone is a little pricey, but it always impresses and makes for a memorable gift.

Gift a little treat here at The Hub

Sometimes the easiest last minute gift is an experience close to home. A voucher for our hair and beauty salon or afternoon tea at Cappuccino gives someone something lovely to enjoy in the new year, with no shipping deadlines to worry about. You will find us at The Hub on Unity Place, Buckshaw Village, Chorley, PR7 7HZ, just off the M6 with free parking on site, so we are easy to reach from Chorley, Leyland, Euxton, Preston and Whittle-le-Woods.

While you are here, why not make a day of it and explore the rest of The Hub, from our Splash swimming pool to our Ofsted Outstanding Buckshaw Village nursery. You can also read more updates over on our Hub News page.

Most of all, remember that Christmas is about the people you are with, not the gifts you get. We hope you have a wonderful one.
