Kareena, with her passion for creating videos and magazine designs, and Hiral, who learned valuable lessons from our website team, were both incredible assets to us.

Last week, we had the pleasure of attending an incredible evening at the ‘Dinner with a Difference’! Hosted by The Albion Foundation at the West Midlands Safari Park, the event took place in the stunning Tree Tops Pavilion.

🌟 Wow, what an incredible journey it has been! Well done to the members of our team successfully completing the Snowdon climb for World Autism Acceptance Week! We are overwhelmed with gratitude for everyone who contributed to this fantastic cause.

Despite facing extremely difficult weather conditions, our team persevered, demonstrating remarkable resilience and solidarity. Unfortunately, we encountered some challenges along the way, including the loss of a camera and a visit to A&E.
