What our visitors say about our site
Just wanted to say a big thanks to Clarence who runs The Big Society website. After emailing him for some help with my DJ business I have to say I am extremely pleased by the results. I’m one of those funny people that have never used Facebook or Twitter before but since following the advice from Clarence I’m so glad I gave it a whirl.
Sorry about the photo but wanted to share how I felt on my last day in the call center I used to work in. Anyway a big shout out to Clarence for showing me that working for yourself is a dream that can turn into a reality. Keep up the good work, and glad to see the new site up and running. Cheers.
