We stand with Ukraine
We're doing what we can for the people of Ukraine.
We can not sit back and accept the situation in Ukraine.
Russia's actions are completely unacceptable and although there is nothing we can directly do, we stand by the people of Ukraine.
We also can not accept the lacklustre approach of our government when it comes to helping the Ukrainian refugees. As a business, we do not go along with their 'closed door' policies.
We are waiting for our government to actually publish details of the sponsorship scheme they keep talking about, allowing businesses to sponsor Ukrainians and provide the support they so desperately need.
As a business we will be doing everything we can to help these brave people - be it providing employment, a place to stay, financial support, or anything else we can do.
We will update this post when we can give more information.

Sizing Tips
The most important measurement is the Girth.
If a dancer is between two sizes, always opt for the larger size.
Because we stock lots of different styles from lots of different manufacturers, we standardise our sizes to make it easier for you.
Girth
With them standing straight, measure from the top of one shoulder, down the fullest part of their chest, through their legs and back up to the same shoulder.
Bust
With their arms down at their sides, measure the fullest part of their chest.
Waist
Ask them to bend to one side and place the start of the measure at the natural indentation. Once they have straightened up, measure from this point around the waist.
Hips
With their feet together, measure around the fullest part of their hips and bum.
Inseam
With them barefooted, measure the inner leg from their crotch to the floor.
