After the festive season, January’s cold, dark days can feel dreary and tiresome. It’s no secret that wintery weather can lead to a lack of motivation, low energy, and bad moods. It’s natural to feel a little offbeat in winter! Your Hospital Bag, a health and wellness brand that provides luxury hospital bags knows exactly what you can do when you’re feeling a little low.

Founded by Laura, wife, mama, nurse, midwife and ex-patient.  The idea of Your Hospital bag evolved from her own hospital experience in 2020. Laura sometimes found that packing her hospital bag could be overwhelming and often didn’t know what to take with her. She found when packing a bag last minute that something was quite often forgotten! When shopping online for her hospital bag Laura found it amazing that any items aimed at a hospital admission lacked a certain something and that luxury went out the window.
