End of term gifts from Blossom Hill

There are some great musical gifts that are just pitched perfectly to thank the inspirational musical teachers out there.

Blossom Hill cards
  Blossom Hill has lots of ideal gifts on offer

With the school year soon to come to an end, Blossom Hill Cards, the family business that specialises in greeting cards, artwork and gifts with a brass banding link has added new additions to its popular range of gifts that would be ideal to say 'thank-you' to that inspirational teacher.

In addition to water bottles, there are tea towels, keyrings, clocks and mugs — perfect also for those who may also be leaving bands to go off to university.

Farewell gift

Founder Laura Scarffe told 4BR: "If you're looking for an end of term gift for your brass teacher, or a farewell gift for a member of your band who is going off to university, we may have just what you're looking for!

From cards, to keyrings, to water bottles and much more, we have something for everyone.

The water bottles in particular are very limited until the end of the summer so order now to avoid disappointment!"
