Hi guys
We have our Mcs Assessment a week today and have spent today finalising our qms. Feeling not too bad about it and the general consensus of opinion I have seen so far is not to worry too much... I hope!
I have already gotten some great advice and help on here from some of those who have...

Cheers in advance
