Corporate gifting has always been about creating meaningful moments, whether that’s recognising an employee, welcoming a new starter, thanking a client, celebrating a milestone or reminding someone that their contribution matters.
But today, businesses are asking more from the gifts they send. They want gifts that feel personal, thoughtful and useful. They want gifting that reflects their values. And increasingly, they want to know that the money they spend is creating impact beyond the recipient’s doorstep.
That’s why we’ve created the 2026 WellBox Impact Report.
It’s a closer look at what your gifting has helped make possible for employees, clients, communities, charities and the people behind every WellBox.
And for anyone who has ever wondered how a corporate gift can create a ripple effect far beyond the box itself, this report is where that story begins.
Why We Wrote This Report
The world of work has changed. Teams are more remote, relationships are often built across screens, and employee experience, client experience and company values are more connected than ever.
In that world, a physical gift can do something powerful. It can cut through the noise and create a tangible touchpoint that turns a message of appreciation into something someone can actually feel.
But the gift itself is only part of the story.
Behind every WellBox gift is a wider chain of people, partners and purpose. From the suppliers we choose, to the team who pack each box, to the charity partners supported through every order, we believe the journey of a gift matters just as much as the moment it creates..
What’s Inside
We’ve split the report into five sections:
1. The Cumulative Impact – every meal, every hour, every partner since we launched. The headline number on the cover is 76,500+, but it’s the breakdown that tells the story.
2. The Charity Partners – Manchester Mind, Barnabus, Matthew’s House, the Trussell Trust, and our brand-new partnership with City Harvest London.
3. Local Roots, National Reach – the 11 grassroots charities we backed this year, alongside our national partners. Most you won’t have heard of. That’s why they need the support.
4. The B Corp Section – what 91.3 actually means, what got us there, and why your procurement team should care.
5. Behind the Gift – where every £1 donation goes, who packs the WellBoxes (it’s our team in Manchester), and what we’re committing to next.
The Numbers Are Only the Beginning
There are some big numbers in this year’s report, covering meals donated, charity partners supported, mental health services funded, communities reached and a verified B Impact Score we’re incredibly proud of.
But the real value of the report is not just in the figures. It’s in the stories behind them.
It’s in the person who reaches out for mental health support and finds someone ready to listen. It’s in the hot meal served to someone who needs safety, dignity and care. It’s in the community organisations doing vital work quietly, consistently and often without the recognition they deserve.
And it’s in the businesses choosing gifts that say more than “thank you”.
Because when gifting is done well, it becomes more than a gesture. It becomes part of the relationship between your business, your people and the wider world around you.
Why this Matters for Your Team
Whether you’re planning employee gifts, client thank-yous, event boxes or sales outreach campaigns, your choice of gifting partner says something about your brand.
It says what you value, how you treat people, and whether the details matter.
For HR and People teams, the report offers a clearer view of how gifting can support recognition, wellbeing and belonging.
For Sales and Account Management teams, it shows how a thoughtful physical touchpoint can help build stronger relationships.
For Marketing teams, it gives you a more meaningful story to place behind campaigns, events and branded moments.
And for Procurement, ESG and leadership teams, it provides the proof points behind choosing a verified, sustainable, values-led gifting partner.
