Friends
We are very proud of our friends at Chilled Turtle and everyone who has helped us along the way. The world is full of very cool people and we are always trying to meet new friends by getting involved in lots of different stuff.
We know we will make more friends as time goes by and of course if you think you know of someone who would make a good friend for Chilled Turtle, do let us know by emailing us at hello@chilledturtle.co.uk
As we are not normal, we don’t like to just post links, so we haven’t! These are people we work with, have been inspired by or just generally believe they are trying to make a difference, so we also tell you a bit about them.
