Choose the setup that applies to your hampers:


1. How to set up a Hamper for collection or delivery

💡 Set up one listing per collection venue

Make sure each listing has:

  • A clear title including the venue: For example, 'HAF Hamper Collect at [Venue Name]'.

  • A different cover photo for each listing: This helps families distinguish between collection venues.

💡 Save time by duplicating listings

You can create one listing and duplicate it:

  1. Go to Manage Listing → Duplicate listing

  2. Open your duplicated listing

  3. Update the title and address to reflect the new collection venue.


Adding dates and tickets

Example: One collection date per venue. Hamper to count as four sessions.

  1. Add your collection date and three other dates as 'fake sessions' to your date block

  2. Make sure you add a block ticket. This will mean that each hamper booking will count as four sessions for the DfE report

  3. Use the Block title to explain this information clearly to bookers
    ​

To reinforce clear messaging, add this to your 'extra message in confirmation email' in your SETTINGS tab.


Hamper choices

You can add extra questions at checkout if you would like to collect hamper choices from families.

These choices will appear on your register and listing exports to make hamper ordering easy!


Create an Collection of your listings

To make it easy for parents, bring the hamper collection venues together in a collection. Add all hamper listings to one collection with “hampers" or "food boxes” in its searchable title.

2. Face to face activity with a hamper gifted when attended

Adding dates and tickets

  1. Add your two sessions of activity and two other dates as 'fake sessions' to your date block.

  2. Make sure you add a block ticket. This will mean that the two face to face sessions and hamper booking will count as four sessions for the DfE report.

  3. Use the Block title to explain this information clearly to bookers.

Note: If the two sessions of activity are NOT attended as required, you can cancel the remaining two sessions which include the hamper booking.
