Sympathy hampers and condolence gifts delivered in Australia
Sending a sympathy gift is a quiet way to say you care when words are hard to find. Our sympathy hampers and condolence gifts are a thoughtful alternative to flowers, with fresh fruit, a long-lasting peace lily, tea and chocolates.
This page helps you choose an appropriate sympathy gift for a family or friend, whether you are sending it to the home, to a funeral home or to a workplace.
What is an appropriate sympathy gift?
A sympathy gift should feel gentle, simple and useful. A fruit basket gives a busy household something to share, and a living plant lasts long after the flowers fade. Avoid anything too bright or celebratory.
Sympathy gift ideas
Condolence gifts instead of flowers
Many people choose condolence gifts that are not flowers, because a hamper can be shared and a plant can be kept. A peace lily is a popular choice for its calm, green look.
How to choose a sympathy gift
- Keep the choice simple and gentle.
- If you are unsure about dietary needs, choose fruit or a plant.
- Consider who will receive it, such as the family at home.
- A short, kind note is enough.
What to write
Keep your message short and sincere, for example: thinking of you and your family at this time.
