Valentine’s Day is about celebrating love in all its forms. It’s about reminding those around you how grateful you are for them, and building strong, lasting relationships. That's why, this year at hampers.com, we are re-imagining Valentine's Day for singles.
No one needs to feel alone or feel left out. If you are single, you can still use this wonderful time of year to spread love and celebrate the special people in your life.
5 ideas for single people this Valentine’s Day
1. make time for close friends
Are there some good friends you haven't managed to see in ages? Is your best friend always busy? Is there always a calendar clash with former work colleagues you are longing to see? If so, then make time to see them this Valentine's Day.
We all live such busy lives, so it's good to check in on how everyone is doing when we can. Get everyone around for a few delicious nibbles and tasty tipples that our team has specially selected for each of our unique gift hampers.
It could be an evening of games around the table with our Spanish Tapas Food & Wine Hampers. Why not spend a day in the park with one of our luxury afternoon tea hampers, or a movie night by the fire with a Decadent Hot Chocolate Gift Hamper? Take this opportunity to organise a bit of a reunion with some friends you've not seen in some time.
2. get the girls together for Galentine's Day
This Valentine's Day, why not gather the girls together for an evening of celebrating friendship? Valentine's doesn't have to be about romantic love, but can be an opportunity to celebrate love for your friends and the strong bond of sisterhood.
As seen in Glamour Magazine, our Flagingo Pink Gin Hamper is the perfect addition to a girls' night in. Bursting with bright flavours like mango, pineapple and passion fruit, this fun and unique gin set is sure to impress any gin-loving ladies.
We've paired the pink gin with a Franklin & Sons natural Indian tonic water and an array of snacks, including decadent chocolate truffles, strawberry cheesecake cookies and more sweet treats to indulge in.
3. gather for a family feast
Perhaps you have family members you haven't checked in with for a while? A grandparent who has been feeling a little lonely lately? Use Valentine's Day to spend time with family and bring everyone together for a proper feast.
We love our Italian Treats Food & Wine Hamper for its abundance of gourmet treats. Taking centre stage is Ca Letizia's Italian Prosecco DOC, perfect for popping open and toasting to time well spent together.
To complement this delicate and bright bottle of fizz is an array of Italian-inspired sweet and savoury snacks. This includes rich truffle sauce, traditional taralli, tomato and herb crackers, plus much more.
There's so much to love in this Valentine's Day hamper, and it's bound to have all the family diving in hands-first, nibbling away whilst knee-deep in conversation.
4. support those who may be struggling
There is no denying that Valentine’s Day can be very tough for those recently bereaved or going through a difficult breakup. Why not make it your mission on Valentine’s Day 2026 to reach out to those struggling and give them something to smile about?
At hampers.com, we believe a gift is about so much more than the physical object. Rather, it's about sparking joy and reminding those who really need it right now how much they're cherished and thought of.
Our range of pamper hampers includes everything they need for the perfect evening of self-care. Our Pamper Night In Hamper not only offers a selection of delectable chocolates, but also cosy socks to warm their toes, a relaxing bath bar and a calming scented candle to leave them feeling zen.
5. show some self-love
It's time to show yourself some much-needed TLC. Take this Valentine's Day to stay in, unwinding with a movie whilst enjoying some of your favourite treats. Our Classic Chocolate Hamper makes a wonderful accompaniment to any cold winter night spent under a blanket.
Warm up with a mug of rich hot cocoa from GNAW, topped with gooey marshmallows and nutty notes. You'll also discover handmade artisan fudge, sticky caramel slice flapjack and Monty Bojangle's indulgent truffles. This luxury chocolate hamper is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth and give you that warm, fuzzy feeling inside.

With everything that is going on in the world, it feels right that Valentine's Day 2026 is all about re-imagining what love truly means and the depth and breadth of relationships all around us.
