| When we started Base12, not only did we want to bring you such great brands as Nexstand and WaterWell but we also wanted to make a difference in the world and build a community of people who like us care about the future of their world. | |

| "I believe life is what you make of it. I couldn’t help but feel restricted working a 9-5 job. I’ve always wanted to be a freelancer but struggled to take the plunge. Finally in 2017 I left the UK behind for a 15 month adventure. It was then that I decided I’d rather have more time for living, even if I earn less money - time is far more valuable to me. 3 years later I have the flexibility I craved - I have a dog, I can choose when and where I work and I am 100% happier!" |

| “I’ve been working for NEXSTAND EU as a developer since March last year. Before that I was teaching but because of the pandemic all schools were shut so I was forced to adapt. It turned out to be a positive thing for me. I’ve got a much better work/life balance.” |
