Happy World Book day! 📚 Throwback to this amazing mobile library we brought to life with Original Cottages. We helped them design, create, and run an internal summer staff engagement tour to spread the joy of summer reads by gifting (and trading!) pre-loved books. All books left behind after the tour were donated to a charity partner, the Reading Agency.

What’s on your reading list this year?!

We have been surrounded by chocolate for the last couple of weeks - And we’re definitely not complaining! 🐰

Over 1,000 Easter confectionary items have been packed into bespoke designed and beautifully crafted selection boxes, and delivered across London to lucky recipients by our wonderful Aldi Butlers.

We loved seeing this project come to life, packing each and every box with care. But above all, we loved seeing the smiles and slight worry on their faces at the sheer amount of chocolate.

We are deeply saddened by the news that the gorgeous Robin has passed away.

We had the pleasure of working with him when we all came out of lock down, and he supported us when live entertainment could only be enjoyed online – his Salsa class was superb, naturally.

He was our friend, neighbour and a wonderful man. We will miss him greatly.

We had an amazing time in Madrid last week working on a *top secret* company-wide broadcast event.

Our hosts Jack and Justine ensured that everything ran smoothly on-screen, while our technical team made sure all the cables were plugged in all the right places.

More projects like these, please! 🤝🏼

To mark Valentine's Day in 2018, we helped the British Heart Foundation achieve a Guinness World Record for the longest chain of paper hearts.

Through their network, they asked people to write messages of love and support for their loved ones, people battling heart disease or in memory of those they've lost. 💖

Ministry of Fun Santa School turned 25 yesterday! 🎉🎅

That's 25 years of spreading Christmas magic across the UK and beyond.

Our jolly Santas gathered at Battersea Power Station for the annual training. They learned the special art of Father Christmas which covers mastering “Merry Christmas” in multiple languages, including BSL, perfecting “Ho Ho Ho!” and ensuring each encounter is memorable and magical.

They ascended Lift 109, taking them up one of Power Station's chimneys to observe the 360-degree views and strategically plan their annual route across London.

Santas and Elves even took to the ice to test their skills and prepare themselves for all types of frosty weather. Some were better than others...

Christmas, we're ready for you!

Delighted to be involved in this project

We had a fantastic time launching Week last Friday with a visit to St Joseph’s RC Primary School to teach P6 pupils all about marine litter, with the help of Poseidon and a mermaid 🧜‍♀️

Then we stopped at the V&A Dundee to meet with Dundee City Council's Vice Convener of Climate, Environment & Biodiversity Committee, Councillor Councillor Nadia El-Nakla - West End and engage with members of the public about the impact litter has on our precious blue spaces.

Barry Fisher, our Chief Executive, said: “It’s wonderful to see so many people of all ages taking an interest in Source to Sea Week and supporting our mission to stop marine litter at source.

“In a short space of time we have achieved so much, but there is still so much to be done. By participating in Source to Sea Week you can help us keep Scotland’s seas beautiful.”
