Last week, Team Interbacs had the privilege of visiting Derian House Children's Hospice for their Make A Difference Day.

We worked together to clear a woodland area; moving logs, trimming overgrowth, and pulling weeds, to support Derian House’s efforts in creating a Forest School for the children.

After a rewarding day, we were inspired by a tour of their incredible facilities and the unwavering dedication of their team.

Derian House’s passion for making a difference is truly inspiring, and we’re honoured to have contributed in a small way. We look forward to returning to support their mission further and encourage others to get involved with this remarkable organisation.

MEET THE TEAM

This week it's the turn of our Managing Director, Edward Taylor:

🌇 Sunrise or Sunset?

Sunsets – On holiday, I like to take the time to appreciate both.

☯️ Chaos or Order?

Order, and everything in its place. Sometimes life gets chaotic, and I have to remind myself I can't control everything.

🔃 Reactive or Proactive?

I focus on being proactive to avoid reactivity, but when needed, I handle situations calmly and with control.

🚶‍♂️‍➡️ Comfort or Adventure?

Adventure – but I always leave a couple of days for comfort at the end of it.

🍵 Coffee or Tea?

Coffee in the morning, tea in the afternoon, herbal in the evening.

🌲 City or Nature Break?

Who doesn’t love a city break, especially somewhere I haven’t been before? But if I had to choose, definitely nature, especially near water or mountains.

📱 Android or iPhone?

I’ve had them all, currently iPhone.

🖥️ Clean or Messy Desk?

It gets messy, but I like it to be clean and organised.

🕺 Night In or Night Out?

I have a young baby, what’s a “night out”?

🎸 Favourite Track?

I have countless favourites that change all the time. Currently loving the vibe of Chosen Family by Rina Sawayama & Elton John.

🔥 How Do You Relax?

Reading or walking somewhere leafy, listening to an audiobook.

🦹 What’s Your Superpower?

I like to fix things. A few years ago at work, they bought me a little plaque that sits proudly on my desk. It says: "Fixer of everything." I can be reactive when I have to be :)

Bacs payments are known for their reliability, but sometimes delays happen. Whether you’re a business paying suppliers or a customer receiving funds, understanding these delays can help you plan ahead.

Common causes include:
🔹 Bank holidays & weekends – Bacs follows a 3-day processing cycle.
🔹 Insufficient funds – Payments may be delayed if the account balance is too low.
🔹 Incorrect payment details – Typos in account numbers can cause setbacks.
🔹 Technical issues – Rare but possible within banking systems.
🔹 Validation checks – Payee verification can add processing time.
