In uncertain times, we must come together and help one another. From this Friday, a lot of schools in the UK will close for the majority of children, which means home schooling could cause stressful times for a lot of parents out there. We want to help where we can, so we've come up with 10 products that will support your child(ren)'s education.

In this resource, we show you how to make a cool Scandinavian style lampshade using our sustainable 3mm laser cork.
