Competition Winners - Two Cuddly Bear Gift Boxes

We ran a competition in conjunction with Babycenter last month and it was a great success!

Two ladies won a Cuddly Bear Gift Box each (RRP£95) and we received the following message from one of the winners..

"I received my parcel today and I would like to say a huge thank you!

It is really lovely. My baby is due in September and I can't wait to see how cute he/she will look in the knotted hat.

If I never win another competition again I would still be happy!

Thanks again"
