Woodmansterne Publications Ltd is a third-generation, family-run British greeting card company built on strong, enduring values. For many years, we have prioritised the wellbeing of our customers, employees, and the environment over short-term financial gain. Our B Corp certification marks a significant step forward, demonstrating our commitment to independent assessment, and to continually improving our performance with transparency and accountability. Our design studio is located on the historic site of the former Croxley Mills, once owned by John Dickson, the inventor of cardboard and the gummed envelope. It is here, at the birthplace of modern stationery that our cards are created. From our production and distribution centre in Milton Keynes, we supply over 30 million cards each year, making us a leading supplier to retailers across Britain. Our mission is to reflect British culture and taste, capturing life’s meaningful moments and helping people express their individuality, thoughts, and passions. In a world that can often feel uncertain, we are proud to stand by our values. They guide every decision we make and are embedded in every card we produce, carrying messages of love, care, and encouragement from us to you.
