Our Co-Founders Cameron and Imali had a great day yesterday at the second year of Innovate Access - a chance to discuss all things Ai with other like-minded disabled entrepreneurs. Throughout the day, they got to network with others in the Lilac Centre community, including the lovely team from Small Business Britain!

The Inkfire team is having a little break!

From 19th December to 5th January, we’ll be stepping away for a well-earned break over the holiday period. We’re away from our desks, but our commitment to accessibility is very much still online. Our bodies, however, are not!

If something urgent pops up during this break, drop us a line at support@inkfire.co.uk - we’ll do our best to get back to you as quickly as possible.

Got any last-minute tasks before the New Year? Now’s the perfect time to send them our way!

For accessibility and peace of mind:

• Our support inbox will still be checked for critical issues.
• Replies might take a little longer than usual - thanks for your patience!
• Non-urgent requests will be picked up when we’re back on 5th January.

Wishing you all a calm, joyful holiday season. See you in 2026! 🎉

We're so excited as a team to be supporting Canine Partners! 🐕 They provide incredible assistance dogs to disabled people throughout the UK, helping them to regain their independence.

Each puppy undertakes a specialist two-year training programme with Canine Partners, which begins from selection at around 8 weeks old. They spend 12 to 14 months in puppy training with a volunteer, followed by several months of advanced training at the National Training Centre.

All that training takes a huge amount of time and energy to achieve, so the team relies on charitable donations to keep doing their work.

Over the next few months, we're going to be taking part in some fundraising activities for Canine Partners - we're open to ideas, so if there's something you'd like to see our team try, let us know!

In the meantime, head over to Canine Partners to follow them and read more about their incredible work 👀

VD: A teal graphic, which reads 'We're proud to be supporting Canine Partners' with a brief description of what the charity does. There are various photographs of assistance dogs wearing purple jackets, and a photo of a wheelchair user, with her dog walking by her side. In the top right is the Canine Partners logo.

We did it - we exhibited at Naidex!

Despite the whirlwind last-minute decision to have a stand, we managed to pull it off. From minute one, we had dozens of friendly faces coming up and visiting us, with so many new friends and connections made!

We are delighted that we got to partner with our friends and colleagues over at Access Your Life for the event - their outstanding work in helping to get the right mobility aids for those who need them stands out in the community.

It's essential that we also give a special shout out to two assistance dogs who helped their owners throughout the day - Fliss and Lena. Their wagging tails and 'happy snorts' brought a smile to everyone's faces.

We're still recovering from the whirlwind of activity and appreciate everyone who gave us a little extra time last week while we caught-up with ourselves. To everyone who visited our stand or came up and said 'hello' we want to let you know how incredibly grateful we are. We can't wait to continue more of these conversations with you over the coming weeks and months!

VD: Four people at a stand at Naidex, with signage surrounding them. There are two females at the front using wheelchairs, and two males stood behind them. To one side sits an assistance dog.

We are proud to be supporting 2025 here at Inkfire! 🔴

We loved having so many of the team get involved in coming together to support this great cause - even having an appearance from baby Nellie, and Rachel's lovely dog, Wilma.

Happy Red Nose day!

In the centre of the graphic is a red circle designed to look like a red nose, which says 'Red Nose Day' inside. Arranged around this circle are various funny and silly photos of the Inkfire team, including baby Nellie wearing a red nose and Rachel's dog, Wilma.

Here at Inkfire, we don’t believe in forcing productivity into a rigid 9-5 regime. Our team works flexibly, meaning someone is always online, but we’re not all working at the same time.

Some of us are early risers, others do their best work late at night. Some need structured hours, while others prefer to be fluid. What matters is that the work gets done - without burnout.

This flexibility allows us to collaborate without forcing creativity into a fixed schedule. It means we can work when we feel our best, show up fully for our clients, and still have time for the things that matter outside of work. It also makes our team more adaptable, responsive, and inclusive - because real life (and health) doesn’t fit neatly into a 9-5 window.

Flexibility isn’t just a perk: it’s how we work best. And as more businesses embrace this shift, it’s clear that the future of work isn’t about hours - it’s about results, balance, and sustainability.

Does your business offer flexibility? If not, it might be time to rethink things to build a more accessible future.
