GCA members show the power of keeping in touch with cards during lock-down

May 19, 2020 | News & Insights, Covid-19

Award winning artists, and Greeting Card Association members, Lanther Black, have written and produced a film for the Greeting Card Association illustrating the joy of receiving a card.

GCA members, ranging from artists, publishers, retailers through to suppliers and agents, have come together during lock-down to share the pleasure of cards.

Sending and receiving a greeting card creates a powerful connection. “It’s intimate – imagine how it feels to see the handwriting of someone you love, especially a child no matter how old they are”. psychologist Dr Lynda Shaw

During the Covid 19 crisis GCA members from across the industry are pulling together to support their local communities, donating cards to care homes and others as we encourage people to send  a card to stay in touch with loved ones. Making cards with children is a great fun activity, and they love receiving them back. A greeting card is a great way of delivering a hug during lock-down.
