We had a lovely staff day out yesterday to mark the end of the year. We had afternoon tea at a local vintage tearoon (thanks Butterfly and the Pig!), then back to our offices for some massage therapy (by Laura at Holistic Wellbeing Therapy), drinks, games, music, presents and chat.

Having time to rest, relax and have fun is really important and it's put us in good stead for the upcoming holidays.
We close for the holidays tomorrow and we will post holiday dates then.
Best wishes,
Alexandra
