We're spending time doing random acts of kindness for people, organisations and companies nominated by some of our partners, suppliers and customers.

Our customers are great. We've asked some of them to nominate who they think we should choose. And they've given us lots of names of people we should make an offer to. So we're doing that. But we're not going to tell you who they are: it's random!

If you've been nominated, you will hear from us. And if you haven't been nominated this year, maybe next year..?

Either way, we would encourage people to do more random acts of kindness.

Pay it forward.
