One way they fund this fantastic work is by reselling good quality donated ski gear! That’s where YOU come in! ♻️

❄️ Our Portsmouth office is an official donation drop-off hub!
📅 Drop off deadline: 20 November 2026
📍 Drop off during our usual office opening hours

🍽️ Favourite meal: A roast dinner or tartiflette
🎬 Favourite films: The Shawshank Redemption, Pretty Woman
🏊‍♀️ Favourite hobby: Open-water swimming. I once swam to the Isle of Wight!
🎶 Guilty pleasure song: Ça Plane Pour Moi by Plastic Bertrand (choosing just one was a challenge for our resident DJ!)
🎙️ Fun fact: I produce and present my own radio show
🚆 French Alps travel preference: Train and I’d love to try the snow train!
⛷️ Current favourite ski resort: Méribel

We’re so lucky to have Mandy bringing her energy and expertise to the team! 💙

🥳 Play a game with us on Instagram’s birthday! 🥳

That’s right, as of this week, Instagram is 16 years old and we’re celebrating with a fun guessing game…🎁

We scrolled alllll the way back to our very first post and the image from that post is in this very collage! 📸🕵️‍♀️

All you have to do is comment the number of the photo you think was our first. If you’re really competitive (and don’t have many plans this Friday evening), you could scroll back and see. However, we don’t condone cheating 😉

It was so fun looking over the last 16 years worth of pictures and seeing how far we’ve come. Our social media style may have changed but our dedication and passion for the French Alps remains the same! 🇫🇷

Here’s to the next 16 🥂
