Half completed in the local pool and half completed in a home made infinity pool (10ft padding pool) in her garden during lockdown.

Thanks to all those who have supported so far . You can still donate

I would just like to share our thanks to you all at Create (As always!) for all of your help and guidance through these last few weeks. You’ve been so organised and helpful, making a very uncertain and unsettling time more manageable and stress free. Whilst we try to do our best, it was so helpful that you proactively contacted us to offer a risk assessment on what we have done so far, what have we got in place and what do we need to think about with managing this situation – from staff operational and health & safety issues, to data security, insurer issues, help with customer issues and so on. It made us just hit pause (momentarily), reflect and then plan forward which really helps us feel we have given top consideration to all areas of the business, and help us to prioritise. You have given us a much clearer head space.
