Upon being told that I have won the prestigious Commonwealth Point of Light Award I was requested to submit a photo of myself for them to use in their press release. Immediately this photo came to mind even though it isn’t a photo of just me, it is one of my favourites kindly taken by […]
Jacob’s Brew Cafe has now been open in Marsascala for 8 months. As a business we are doing well with regular customers coming back time and again, but there is so much more to the shop than just serving coffee. We are donating a percentage of our profits from sales at the shop to fund […]
