Hi, I need to fix this dripping tap but not sure how to get into it. I can't see anything that looks like a screw that's covered up, anyone had any success getting into one of these please?

You need to first unscrew the parts under the twizzle knobs (sorry for being so technical lol); wrap something round so you don't mark them and use stilsons or something you can grip onto them. Then I would think the pillars and the bottom part of the actual tap will just lift off1

If undoing Floray's collar doesn't work - ie it cannot be lifted high enough to allow access to the cartridge's nut underneath - then I suspect that one of the three handly bits will unscrew, either exposing a grub screw underneath that'll allow the whole handle to lift off, or will itself release the handle. Probably all three of these thingies unscrew, but possibly only one will do the handle-holding.That's a guess.0
