Please accept our apologies if you haven’t received chocolates or cards from us. Having worked in offices where we’ve been overwhelmed with chocolates and cards, its really appreciated. Likewise, we really do appreciate & value our clients, associates and suppliers for their fine work.
However, most mornings we come across numerous homeless sleeping in the subways near our HQ in Plymouth University. There’s a lot of reasons why people may be sleeping on the street and time-permitting, we stop & have a chat & offer to buy breakfast or hot drinks at least weekly, but this only goes so far.

This year we have made a cash donation to Shekinah towards their “Christmas Menu for Change” Campaign as our thoughts are with those less fortunate than ourselves.
Thanks for reading and we wish you all a happy Xmas and look forward to 2017.

Named for Aesop, the master story teller whose fables are woven into our cultural consciousness, this engine provides a powerful suite of multimedia storytelling tools.

Department store chain John Lewis reports strong sales over the Christmas period, but rival Debenhams says its chief financial officer has resigned.
