Jollybox is proud to be sponsors of the Sellebrity Soccer Charity Match in Redditch on 20th July – a special event raising vital funds for Birmingham’s Children’s Hospital in memory of Lucie Southall. This heart–warming match brings together celebrities, local heroes, and community members to support a cause that’s close to all our hearts. With over 50,000 children treated each year, the hospital plays a vital role in both medical care and emotional support for families across the region. By sponsoring the match, we’re standing in solidarity with those who need it most – and our mascot Sparky will be there on the day to cheer everyone on!
Jollybox will be there on the day – proudly supporting this incredible cause and cheering from the side lines with our much–loved mascot, Sparky the Star. We’ll be joining families, fans, and fellow supporters to help raise awareness and funds for Birmingham’s Children’s Hospital – a place that means so much to so many. Keep an eye out for Sparky – who’ll be spreading smiles, high–fives, and a bit of sparkle throughout the event.
SEN support in schools – star in Jollybox 2025 updates!
Earlier this year, the Jollybox team had the wonderful opportunity to visit Pitcheroak School – a specialist SEN school – where we ran fun, engaging activities and provided sensory toys for the children. Our mascot, Sparky the Star, joined us too – spreading smiles, high–fives, and a little bit of magic! It was a heart–warming experience and truly reflects what Jollybox is all about – creating meaningful moments through play, connection, and inclusivity. We’re proud to have been welcomed so warmly and hope to carry out many more visits like this in the future.
New website being developed
If you’re reading this, chances are you’ve landed on our new and improved website! We decided it was time to upgrade the old one – giving Jollybox a fresh look and making the entire experience much more user–friendly for our visitors.
This upgrade means smoother browsing, easier shopping, and a clearer view of everything Jollybox has to offer – from our sensory toys to exciting updates and community work. Looking ahead, it also gives us a stronger foundation to grow – allowing us to add new features, share more resources, and create a space that truly reflects who we are and what we stand for.
Lastly, Something to celebrate…
Jollybox win regional start-up of the year award in retail and e-commerce.
We’re thrilled to share some exciting news – Jollybox has officially won the Regional Start–Up of the Year Award in the Retail and E–Commerce category! After being nominated among some incredible businesses, we went head–to–head with other passionate and hard–working start–ups and proudly came out on top – taking home first place and a shiny trophy. The awards ceremony took place on 17th June and was a truly memorable moment for our small but growing team. It was a fantastic celebration of all the hard work, dedication, and community support that has gone into building Jollybox from the ground up.
But the journey doesn’t stop there – we’re now through to the National start up award Finals this September at ideas fest, where we’ll be representing our region and competing for the top spot across the UK. This recognition means so much to us – not just as a business, but as a team driven by a mission to make sensory play more accessible, engaging, and joyful for every child. We’re incredibly proud of how far we’ve come – and even more excited for what’s still to come.
Moving forward from Jollybox 2025 updates…
At Jollybox, we’re always moving forward – building a sensory toy store that’s rooted in care, creativity, and purpose. Every step we take is about growing thoughtfully – from expanding our product range to forming meaningful partnerships and supporting the community through fun, inclusive experiences. We’re committed to creating a trusted space for families, educators, and children to discover sensory toys that inspire development and joy. As we continue to grow – with new ideas, collaborations, and improvements – our focus remains the same – to make sensory play accessible, impactful, and full of heart.
