Sometimes you fail to appreciate what is on your doorstep. As one of our monthly outings we headed to @CherwellBoat for a lovely leisurely punt along the river in fabulous Oxford. Nicely anchored with a yummy meal and drinks at the @OxVictoriaarms

We had a great time at the #MRE2024 conference put on by @innovateuk. There was so much interest in our alternative to palm oil and it wasn't just due to bear costume 🙃 #altoil #innovation #sustainability

It's finally here! We're looking forward to seeing everyone and discussing sustainable sourcing of ingredients over the next 2 days.

Hello from the Bears and our adopted sun bear named Panda. Panda's cared for by the fabulous @BSBCC_SunBear. Panda reminds us every day why we're working hard at SBB to produce an alternative to palm #oil. We're excited for 2024 and all the progress we plan to make #Innovation

It's the @MassChallengeCH awards ceremony tonight. It's been a fantastic programme. We've learned so much and take away a huge amount from the community of stakeholders involved from organisers to participants, mentors and corporate partners. Thank you!

Thanks @thetimes for mentioning us alongside the wonderful @Carbon13_news. We're really proud to be working on an alternative to palm oil, which is the 3rd most impactful food on the planet that humans produce, after only meat and dairy. thetimes.co.uk/article/3c9b9…
