We would like to thank Whitbread (www.whitbread.co.uk/) for such an amazing community day helping me at the Sanctuary :) I was blown away by how much was achieved and the massive help from them. A brilliant team and a fun day :)
Special thanks to Nick for organising the day and food for all 35 members of the team :) Also a big thank you to Tom (www.instagram.com/assembled.media/) for filming on the day.
Thank you,
Martin
