@RonjaTheSpaniel It looks incredible!

@ShazzBakes @RonjaTheSpaniel We have some resources on our website (leaflets, posters, window stickers etc) which would be great to hand out! We also share loads of awareness resources on FB and insta which are great for sharing. As well as the course linked above, we also have a free mini course.
