This week, everyone at Microlise has been receiving a gift-a-day from a small army of generous elves.

This heralds the beginning of the Christmas season in our offices.

For twelve – or as is the case this year, 14 days – we will each receive a festive gift that may be practical, indulgent or just a bit of fun.

It takes a fair amount of planning (and storage space) and a lot of thought and care, but the work done by our gift-bearing elves is extremely well-received here at Microlise HQ.

And for those of us who don’t need any additional presents at this time of year, we have the option to re-gift them to a local charity, who supports families that struggle on a daily basis – and particularly at Christmas-time.

Our Christmas initiative sits alongside other popular ‘thank-you’ events like our summer family BBQ, or the gifts we each receive for Easter and Valentine’s Day.
