January is a time of year for fitness, with research revealing that in 2021, there will be a 50% increase in people setting exercise as their new year’s resolutions. But, as we enter into the UK’s third lockdown, gyms are forced to shut their doors and millions of school children are unable to return to school.
During the first lockdown, two-thirds of parents said that the time spent with…
Work is one of those things that we can all feel like we can get into a style dilemma with. You love the job you do, you are a powerful business woman – like my recent intervieweeFearne Cotton, but yet you may not feel like you can identify your style and personality through your workwear due to feeling like you can’t express yourself too much. You don’t want to lose the appearance…
Sharing hobbies can be a great way to communicate, create a stronger, intimate connection, and sustain a fun and interesting relationship. While we don’t need to share every one of our interests with our partners, it’s nice to have some things we enjoy doing together. Finding hobbies as a couple can be an exciting way of widening our horizons to take advantage of sharing our interest.

New study reveals 4 in 10 UK parents with newborn babies felt unsupported by local health services during lockdown. The nationwide closure of popular parent and baby groups during the most recent lockdown has sparked a backlash from parents with newborns across the UK, who rely heavily on this social interaction and health support during what is a difficult and isolating time for many new mothers.
Whilst 2020 has been a time of upheaval and reflection for many, what did we really learn from our children during these unchartered times?

I love a new initiative run by Oust, the descaling solution, called ‘We Can Save It’ to help Brits save money this winter following the pandemic. This follows new research revealing that Brits are expected to spend £2.5 billion scrapping and replacing household goods over the festive period*, as retail sales drive Brits into consumption. 29% of Brits said products being replaced could be…
The one challenge that I remember when my son was a baby was the breastfeeding and the constant ‘boob in, boob out’ in public. I still have clearly in mind how delicate my breasts were while breastfeeding. I did it for 20 months so it was quite draining and the bra problem was initially serious. Before finding a decent bra from Mothercare (the business has gone bust since), I had to…
