When we were approached by Victoria Burney from the School of Psychology at the University of Auckland to provide a cost-effective Koha box for their guest speakers, we knew we were up to the challenge. However, when she told us more about who the speakers were and why she had chosen Special Gifts, we knew these speakers deserved the best quality gift box.

The Koha boxes would be gifted to parents of disabled children who were coming to speak to the students about their experience supporting their family members. Victoria had chosen Special Gifts because she thought the recipients would “appreciate them – both the physical treats and the ethos behind Special Gifts”. It was important to her, just like us, that we do more than just talk about the valuable place disabled people have in our society.
