To show just how much you care, give friends and family a unique, environmentally friendly gift they will love and that helps to continue the survival of the natural world.

Each year, we struggle to think of new, interesting or fun presents to give our loved ones. The Earthly Goods collection offers a terrific range of beautiful handmade, recycled, organic and Fairtrade items, with everything from bags and bracelets to candles and cushions. As well as gifts, you will find a stunning selection of Christmas cards and calendars that are 100 per cent recycled and unique Christmas decorations and gift wrap, all available at the click of a button at www.wwf.org.uk/shop.

There are some perfect stocking fillers or gifts for the office secret Santa, like the Fairtrade Butterfly Key Rings or FSC certified (Forest Stewardship Council) Animal Fridge Magnets that are both useful and fun. And for those of you with a more substantial stocking, the 100% lead free Pewter Bookmarks and the recycled Mini Notebook bound in recycled sari material are ideal.

For the man in your life, why not dazzle him with the Everlite Kinetic Torch. This brand new innovation needs no batteries, just 30 seconds of shaking will supply you with bright light for up to one hour - the perfect 'boy's toy'!

For the ladies, there is some beautiful jewellery like the Magnetic Hematite Bracelet believed to aid blood flow, relieve pain and enhance healing and the Mayan Music Ball and a delicate hand made silver ball that has an enchanting sound and comes with a 60cm long chain. As well as some eye-catching and elegant fashion like the luxury, three quarter length Lambswool Shawls and the recycled Sari Silk range including a Handbag, Hat and Scarf.

Finally, don't miss out on the extensive range of natural beauty products, beautiful and unusual candles and holders, exquisite crystal, glass or ceramic ornaments and even some fun gifts for your pets! There really is something for all ages, male and female and with prices ranging from as little as £2.99 up to £195 and more than 50 per cent of the catalogue under £25, you will truly be buying a gift that doesn't cost the earth!

Ordering is simple - order online at www.wwf.org.uk/shop, by telephone on 0870 750 7023 or by post using the order form in your catalogue (call 0870 750 7023 for free copy of the catalogue).
