Gibsons is proud to announce an exciting new collaboration with English Heritage

Gibsons is proud to announce an exciting new collaboration with English Heritage, launching with two beautifully designed jigsaw puzzles that celebrate some of England’s most iconic landmarks: Stonehenge and Castles of England.

 

This collaboration marks the beginning of what both organisations hope will be a long and successful working relationship, bringing history to life through engaging and high-quality puzzles.

The new range launches with two distinct designs:

Stonehenge – A striking 500-piece circular puzzle, illustrated by Gibsons’ talented in-house design team. This unique format adds an extra challenge while showcasing one of the world’s most recognisable prehistoric monuments throughout the seasons of the year.


Castles of England – A detailed 1000-piece puzzle, illustrated by artist Tristam Rossin, featuring five historic castles [SW1] from across the country: Tintagel Castle, Carisbrooke Castle, Kenilworth Castle and Elizabethan Garden, Dover Castle and Bolsover Castle.  These have been brought together in his distinctive style.
Together, these jigsaws invite puzzlers to explore England’s heritage from the comfort of their own homes.

This collaboration brings together two organisations with a shared commitment to celebrating British culture and history. As a certified B Corporation, Gibsons is dedicated to balancing purpose and profit, ensuring its products are created responsibly with people and the planet in mind.

Gibsons is also a proud recipient of the King’s Award for Enterprise, recognising its excellence in sustainable development and business performance.

The launch of Stonehenge and Castles of England marks just the beginning of the collaboration, with more exciting projects already on the horizon.

Emily Charles, Head of Brand at Gibsons, said:

“We’re absolutely delighted to be partnering with English Heritage on this special range. These puzzles celebrate the beauty and history of some of England’s most iconic landmarks, and we’re so excited to bring them to puzzlers everywhere. As a B Corp and King’s Award-winning company, it’s important to us that we work with partners who share our values, and we’re looking forward to building a wonderful collaboration together.”

Alexandra Bovey, Licensing Manager at English Heritage, said:

“The team at Gibsons have done some fantastic work in telling the stories of some of the fascinating sites in the charity’s care. The fine details in each jigsaw speak to their unique histories, and it’s really exciting to see another way for people to engage with our heritage – through puzzles! We are grateful to Gibsons for all their work so far with us, and excited for this collaboration to further evolve in the coming years.”

Both Stonehenge (500 pieces) and Castles of England (1000 pieces) are available to trade customers via the Gibsons Trade Portal now, and direct to consumers from 7th July.
