Christmas is the time for giving - but sometimes it can be hard to find a present for someone who 'has everything'. One way round this is to give to someone else on their behalf, with a gift that perhaps reflects their interests, that's made by disadvantaged people, or is a fundraiser for a charity, or is eco-friendly.

Our all-available-online gift guide is the ideal source for presents that are good for the planet and the people on it.
