Bless Overseas

Lawrence Road has its own character, very different from the shopping districts. We are located at A1/142b. It’s more of an industrial area, so there are always trucks moving and people loading things nearby. Bless Overseas is tucked into this block, and it’s a very straightforward setup. We don't have a fancy entrance or a sign that lights up. It’s just a sturdy door and a few windows. Inside, the space is mostly taken up by large tables where we can lay things out and check them. We’ve been here long enough that the postman knows exactly where to find us without looking at the number. The office has a bit of a recycled feel to it, with mismatched chairs and some old metal cupboards that we’ve had since the beginning. It’s not a place where you’d come to see a showy display; it’s a place where work happens. We keep the kettle going for most of the afternoon because it gets a bit chilly in the winter months. The floor is concrete, and we keep it swept, but there's always a bit of dust from the road. Most of our day is spent talking to drivers and making sure things are moving on time. It’s a busy, dusty, and honest kind of place. We like it here because it’s practical and we have enough room to breathe and get our jobs done without any distractions. It is just how we work.
