We can’t believe that’s another charity week over! It’s one of our favourite weeks of the year and we’re sad that it’s already come to a close. It was so lovely to see our factory, head office and shop staff come together to raise much needed funds for our chosen charity, Children on the edge. At Chocolate HQ we had a great week of
We did it! We did it! On Saturday 12th May, 22 of Team Monty’s headed to Brighton Racecourse to take part in the Colour Obstacle Rush! Naturally, it was the only rainy day in about two weeks, but we didn’t let the weather dampen our spirits! Half of the team hopped in to the Monty’s party bus (appropriately named by Helen),
