giving something back to the community

We have been raised by the idea of if you have more than you need build a bigger table – not a higher fence and our beloved parents did a fairly good job with us. We’ve learnt the lesson – so we did our research and picked a charity to support with our day to day work.

Unfortunately, heart and cardiovascular diseases are well known in our family therefore we’ve found convenient to help and support as much as we can the British Heart Foundation.
