Designed and made in Britain

If your ethos is centred around the UK’s unique heritage you’ll want unusual products of quality and authenticity with a distinct local flavour.
We go to considerable lengths to attract companies that match this profile, and this area is a hotspot for buyers eager to source unusual products that combine high quality with a distinct local flavour and a great story. Many of these exhibitors only exhibit at Giving & Living, giving you exclusive access to locally produced items that you would almost certainly miss if you did not attend.

Look out for this sign as you walk around the show:

We had a great variety of exhibitors for you to discover in the Designed and made in Britain area in 2020. Amongst them was the unique and beautiful silver jewellery handcrafted in Cornwall by Brett and Leni Handcrafted Jewellery; multi award winning natural skincare, toiletries and home fragrance gifts from Kernowspa; colourful cards, prints, homewares and gifts from Cornish Bird in the Sticks; and The Sea Shed, a design led giftware company which takes its inspiration from the coastline of the British Isles. That’s just a taste of the kind of exhibitors you’ll find here in 2021, and there will be many many more!

Giving & Living is such a lovely show. It’s great to be able to exhibit amongst so many lovely, creative independent businesses. We’ve been really busy and taking lots of orders from both new and existing customers. We loved the opportunity to meet with customers from across the South West and beyond to showcase our new calendars for 2020.”

Giving & Living springs forward

Following the new lockdown and continuing Covid-19 uncertainty, Giving & Living, the South West’s biggest gift & home trade show, has been postponed to the Spring of 2021. The show will now take place from Monday 10th May – Wednesday 12th May, at Westpoint, Exeter, and will, as ever, be the place for buyers looking to stock up with the very latest trends in gifts and home accessories for the year ahead.

We are delighted to have secured these dates, which provide more than two months lead time before the Summer season. We know how much our exhibitors and buyers are looking forward to getting back together face to face. These dates will allow businesses to trade though Easter and the early Spring, and attend with confidence to buy, after what will be a have been a very disrupted winter for us all.

If you have any questions about the new dates, please call us on 01934 733433. For more information about the show, follow @giving_living, or take a look around the website, where you can also register to attend or find out how to book your stand.

We look forward to seeing you all in May.
