Excellent article featuring founder Nic Lander highighting the advances he would like to see implemented.
This fits very nicely with our aims of building a supportive community using the soon to be open Kimel Cafe as a hub.
We are all human, none of us is perfect (OK, maybe I am!! 😜 ) and the point of a community is that we all come together to play to our strengths but supporting or weaknesses.
