Happy International Asexuality Day! 🤍🖤💜

Today we celebrate the ace community and raise awareness of asexuality - a spectrum where people can experience little or no sexual attraction.

There’s no “right” way to be ace, and all experiences are valid 🏳️‍🌈

#InternationalAsexualityDay #BasingstokePride

Thanks so much to those who took part! 💖

We had so much fun making it! - Did you manage to find all 11?👀

Admittedly, even our own marketing team missed some 🤭

But onto more important matters: Who's having chocolate for breakfast tomorrow? 🍽️ 🙋🏻‍♀️
