If you love the thrill of a fresh notebook, the smooth glide of a quality pen, or the satisfaction of a perfectly sharpened pencil, then National Stationery Week (NSW) 2025 is for you! Taking place from Monday, 12th May to Sunday, 18th May, this week-long celebration is dedicated to everything stationery – from writing and creativity to organisation and design.
Why National Stationery Week Matters
In an increasingly digital world, NSW champions the joy and importance of writing by hand. Whether you’re jotting down notes, sketching ideas, or sending a handwritten letter, stationery remains a key part of daily life. This year, the campaign is bigger and better than ever, bringing together leading stationery brands, independent retailers, and stationery lovers across the UK.
Event organiser Sarah Laker shares her excitement: “National Stationery Week is all about inspiring people to put pen to paper and celebrate the joy of stationery. It’s a chance to discover new products, engage with your favourite brands, and support local retailers and stationery suppliers. Whether you’re a pen collector, a journal enthusiast, or just love beautifully designed stationery, there’s something for everyone to enjoy!”
