Greetings!
We encourage you to sign up to Facebook and become a fan of ours. It allows us to send you updates including the arrival of new products and ask for feedback as it happens, rather than once a month. Our photo competitions will be run through facebook - we've already posted the winners of our last photo competition and details about our next photo competition on Facebook.

Now we're looking at how best to publicise our workshops when we launch them - we'd like to publicise these using Facebook. Not everybody reads their newsletter immediately, if at all, and sometimes these end up going into the spam box of your email provider.
If you'd rather avoid Facebook but don't mind more regular emails (they'll just be brief notes in between the full monthly newsletter) then subscribe to our "Brief Notes" by clicking on the following link. Make sure you tick the BRIEF NOTES box when required.
