" ICE is a very supportive environment, from the staff to the other business owners, there’s always someone willing to chat and bounce ideas around. Before joining ICE we based ourselves at home, which was not ideal. Since joining, we have seen our business grow, and the success and natural referrals we have made at ICE means that should only continue. "
