Cookies on this website

A cookie is a small file a website saves in your browser. Here is what ours do. Last updated 3 November 2026.

The short version

The site works without any cookies. We only use Google's cookies if you say yes on the cookie banner, and nothing from Google loads until you do.

Cookies we only use if you say yes

These help us see which pages are useful and which adverts bring in work. They do not tell us who you are.

Things that run without cookies

Cloudflare Web Analytics counts visits to each page. It does not use cookies and does not follow you around the web.

Turnstile is Cloudflare's spam check on the enquiry form. It only loads once you start filling the form in, and it is there to stop robots, not to track you.

WhatsApp and phone buttons just open WhatsApp or your phone. Nothing is saved until you choose to message or ring us.

Changing your mind

You can change your choice at any time with the Cookie settings link at the bottom of every page. You can also delete cookies in your browser settings. Saying no does not stop any part of the site working.
