Watch our story unfold

WE ARE EIGHT! 🥳 Today is officially edge's 8th B WE ARE EIGHT! 🥳 

Today is officially edge's 8th Birthday ...and the start of our Birthday MONTH ✨ (because let's be honest, we always do our best to stretch it out for as long as possible 🤩).

On this day 8 years ago, we took a contingent of Swedish Planning officials (thanks to Sarah's uncle - if you didnt know, Sarah is Swedish) on a tour of London, including excursions to Kings Cross and the Olympic Park... it wont surprise you to hear that Hannah commandeered the coach mic system and gave everyone a history of the development of London along the way! 

8 years of big ideas, hard work and brilliant people. A HUGE thank you to everybody who has supported us, cheered us on, worked with us, recommended us, and been part of our journey so far. Roll on Monday's team celebrations! 💖 

#smallbusiness #cheerstoeightyears #birthdayfun
It’s a very sad day at edge HQ today, as we say go It’s a very sad day at edge HQ today, as we say goodbye and good luck to Greta, one of our OGs!

You joined us as we transitioned from edge’s first home (Hannah’s spare room 🥹) to our first office space… and then back home again as we locked down for Covid. You’ve been with us through major milestones, seen the team quadruple in size (!) and gain three office fur babies!

You’ll be hugely missed by the team, and we wish you lots of love, luck and edge magic in your next chapter! 💖

🌟 Luke has an all-black cat called Ziva (Ziva the Diva when she’s being chaotic).
🌟 Luke loves buying tools he doesn’t need for DIY jobs that “are easier for me to do myself.”
🌟 He has an unhealthy relationship with wide leg trousers, but this will never change.
