Throwback to a short film with @LEGO_Group featuring two bespoke tables & benches built by us! 🕯️With 20% off, our bespoke tables are a cosy spot to enjoy hobbies just like Raha Moharrak here, the first Saudi woman to climb Everest's Seven Summits and an avid Lego builder! 🗻

Great to see @ShabanaMahmood visiting @JerichoOrg, who run our #Birmingham wood recyclers The Wood Shack.
Brilliant to have the Lord Chancellor, @ShabanaMahmood, visit our head office yesterday to learn more about what we do.
