    On this #WorldSuicidePreventionDay, let's take a moment to reflect on the importance of mental health and the power of connection. Every life is valuable, and no one should feel alone in their struggles. Today, we honor those we've lost and stand in solidarity with those who may be silently battling their own challenges. A simple conversation, a kind word, or a listening ear can make all the difference. Together, we can break the stigma and create a world where it's okay to ask for help. Check in on your loved ones, reach out if you're struggling, and remember—it's okay to not be okay. #MentalHealthMatters #SuicidePrevention #YouAreNotAlone

    Hit the round running? I'm ready for the next Olympics 🏃♂️ First month with Las Iguanas now firmly under the belt, I can honestly say I've never fallen in love with a company so quickly. The positive changes are coming thick and fast, it's too exciting witnessing an audience base fall back in love with a brand they've known for many years. ✅ New direction brand shoot thanks to Joshua Sherwood ✅ Best selling Taco of the month campaign launched ✅ Brand new collaborations ✅ Developing unique "on the spot" loyalty scheme ✅ All things festive finalised and flourishing A lot of love to the team working phenomenally hard Andrew Slater, Lia Joynes, Rob Flanagan, Sindija Barrios - some very exciting stuff to come from Las Igs in the near future.
