I'm currently away on leave, so the online shop will be taking a short break from 15 May to 5 June 2025. You will still be able to buy gift vouchers and courses. Thanks so much for your patience and understanding - I’m sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. Our physical store remains open during our normal trading hours, so feel free to pop in.
