Ever wished for a non-screen alternative for your kids that was equally handy but that tapped into the greatest entertainment resource of all: imagination?
Well, Exeter-based mum of three, Kate de Bass, felt the same way and has set about creating a solution.

All the products – dinky little A5 activity cases, portfolios and activity books – have been dreamed up and designed by Kate.

Next up for the Devon club is a trip to fellow play-off challengers Saracens on Sunday, May 10, before they wrap their campaign up with a home engagement with Sale Sharks on Saturday, May 16.
