The programme will focus on
Our Industry Champions
Our inaugural group brings together experience and insight from across the Home & Gift landscape.
The Home & Gift industry is one of the UK's most important yet often overlooked economic sectors. Behind every gift, celebration, milestone and retail experience are thousands of businesses employing hundreds of thousands of people across the country.

From real business challenges to meaningful action
The Industry Champions Programme will support the Home & Gift Association's ongoing advocacy work, including engagement with policymakers, collaboration with industry partners and participation in initiatives such as The Genesis Initiative, which campaigns on behalf of UK SMEs and entrepreneurs.
Just as importantly, our Industry Champions will provide valuable insight into the issues affecting businesses on the ground, helping us develop practical support, resources and opportunities that deliver genuine value to members.
