Thanks for getting back to me.
I bought a 24v Switched Mode AC DC Power Supply like this:
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/18W-750mA-Fixed-Voltage-24V-Switched-Mode-AC-DC-Power-Supply/282416149933
And then cut the plug off the end and wired it to the board.
Looks like this is the culprit – should a switching power supply work – or should I get another one which is only AC?
