The Sustained team are a lucky bunch, we have had a huge amount of support since we started.

From Natalie Kelly who helped us launch from our spare room, to David North who worked to double our distribution and all the writers, designers, programmers, photographers, illustrators, marketeers, sponsors, advertisers, distributors, family and friends who have contributed to Sustained. We have been extremely lucky to have such people around us, people who share our vision for an improved sustainable existence. Quite simply, without your help, Sustained would not exist.

It has been an exciting and bumpy ride. A steep learning curve with many highs and mistakes a-plenty. We arrive at this point in our journey with experience under our belt.

Our success gives us confidence and something to build upon and our failure brings us hindsight and something to learn from. At the Creative Coop (Sustained’s publisher) we believe getting it wrong is just as important as getting things right. We also believe that sharing your failures is as important as shouting about your success.

Therefore this blog has been set up to help you share our journey, the highs and the lows, the smiles and the frowns. In hope you can learn from and improve on what we do – pretty useful when you are trying to change the world
