News
At the start of July 2011 the new team moved into the Leaf office and we've been working around the clock to bring everything up to speed. Once we manage that this page will update more often. In the meantime you can keep up to date with what's going on by checking our Facebook and Twitter pages.
Leaf Books' Office Move and new address
As part of the new team's efforts to consolidate Leaf Books we have moved offices again (last time now, we think!) so all post should now go to:
New address:
Leaf Books
30a Moy Road
Roath
Cardiff
CF24 4TF
Don't panic if you've sent something to an old address; they're aware of the situation and we are checking with them regularly for any displaced mail.
(We apologise too for any delays in, basically, anything - we've had a lot to catch up on and we can't rule out forgetting things along the way)
