Leonora welcomes CEO and Founder of Oxwash, Kyle Grant to the show. Oxwash has reinvented laundry and dry cleaning services with their on-demand service that uses state-of-the-art low impact washing technology.

"Although it may seem a boring topic, washing is something we all do every day! I never understand how our family can get through so much dirty laundry day in, day out, and the washer and dryer seem to be endlessly spinning. We welcome CEO and Founder of Oxwash, Kyle Grant to the show. Kyle's a bit of a laundry expert and has so many brilliant tips, hacks, and advice for washing as a family. He shares simple ideas everybody can implement - for example, the use of a microfibre filter to capture all those nasty bits of plastic, stain removal, and why none of us should ever use a dry cleaner ever again!

"It was a real pleasure learning from Kyle and I'm making some changes immediately!" Leonora Bamford, Founder, My Baba.
