We are an office full of dog lovers! Quite often there will be a four-legged friend bumbling around during the working day and so this year we used our Christmas Fundraiser to support something close to home, with pets in mind!

An away day at Lord Leycester Hospital!

Last month, several members of the Messenger team headed to Lord Leycester Hospital to deliver a series of traditional workshops for Donald Insall Associates away day.
