The Handy Finds UK

Brands and retailers we cover

In short: The Handy Finds UK publishes 75 research-based UK buying and gift guides. This page lists the retailers I link to and the brands that appear in the guides, and explains how brands and retailers can work with me. A brand or retailer appearing here doesn’t mean it endorses the site or has a partnership with me, and none of them has paid to be included.

Work with us

I’m James Mackie, a sole trader based in the Scottish Borders, and I research and write every guide on the site myself. I’m happy to hear from UK brands, retailers and affiliate managers about:

What I don’t offer: paid placements, paid rankings or sponsored reviews. Picks are chosen on research first and links are added afterwards, as explained in how I research and the affiliate disclosure.

Where the guides are shared: the website, plus Pinterest, Instagram and TikTok (@thehandyfindsuk on Instagram and TikTok).

Get in touch: hello@thehandyfinds.co.uk. I aim to reply within a few working days.

Retailers we link to

Most guides link to Amazon.co.uk. Where a product is also sold by another UK retailer or by the brand itself, the guide adds an “Also at” button. Links marked “plain link” earn the site nothing at present; they’re there because the retailer stocks the exact model.
