Greeting cards have had a fantastic amount of press coverage in the run up to Christmas 2019; GCA activity and news stories about card sending potentially being in decline (which of course it’s not!), has led to 51 media interviews since the middle of October.

We have spoken to press ranging from the Daily Mail, Guardian and Sunday Times through to TV and regional BBC Radio Stations.

Spreading positive news about card sending, countering negative stores, and encouraging/reminding consumers about the importance of connecting to loved ones through sending cards, is a key part of the work that we do on behalf of the industry.

Below is the link to an interview on BBC Breakfast November 2019, and a list of the interviews we have done just in the one week before Christmas 

Thank you all for your support of the GCA, we are a not-for-profit trade association, wholly owned by you our members, so your subscription enables us to do this work on behalf of our industry; reminding consumers of the importance of sending greeting cards to their loved ones.
