The Kentish Candle Co., launched in 2020, creates luxury candles inspired by Kent’s landmarks and scents. For Valentine’s Day, it has teamed up with local producers to create The Valentine’s Edition Gift Box, with 100% of profits going to the #LoveTheNHS campaign.

Donna Belgrave, founder of The Kentish Candle Co., said:

“This year people can’t visit the shops to buy special Valentine’s Day gifts, and local producers are suffering as a result. This gift box supports several local businesses as well as providing a complete, luxury Valentine’s Day gift in just a few clicks.”

The Valentine’s Edition Gift Box includes:

• 1x glass jar candle in any scent from The Kentish Candle Co.
• 1x sweet treat from Kent-based Kakawa Artisan Chocolatier in either No. 4 Ruby Chocolate or No. 9 Strawberry Champagne
• 1x beverage – either Maidstone Distillery’s ‘Ranscombe Wild’ Gin & Folkington’s ‘Country Garden’ Tonic or a bottle of fizzy Petalo Il Vino dell’Amore

The gift box comes with a gift bag, tissue paper, ribbon and a handmade bespoke Valentine’s card (which can be supplied blank or with a chosen message handwritten inside) and costs £30.

Donna was inspired to donate the profits to the NHS by a customer and close family members who work hard for the NHS. She said: “We can’t thank you all enough, you wonderful NHS workforce – we love you!”
