Click the link below for details ❤️☃️❤️

Rain, rain go away, because it is SWITCH ON DAY! 🤩
You don’t want to miss this spectacular reveal!
There are 3 switch-ons at 5, 6 and 7pm, please check the comments for all the info including parking info. Please plan ahead as there are road works and road closures in the area, and parking is limited - you may have to park further away and allow for a ~5 minute walk - be sure not to arrive (or be within viewing distance of the house) before 5:30/6:30 for the later switch-ons, as the lights will still be on from the earlier switch-ons! It may be busy, and we have limited space - so please be patient and be kind, and remember to bring some coins to make a wish at the wishing well! See you soon! 😁❄️☃️🎄✨

Anxiety disorders affect millions worldwide and they’re far more than just feeling ‘worried.’ From intense fear to physical symptoms like dizziness or breathlessness, anxiety can impact daily life in powerful ways. If you or someone you know is struggling, you’re not alone. 💛

Talk Tuesday- speaking up helps others.
Talking about mental health isn’t a weakness. It’s a step toward healing. When we speak openly about how we feel, we give ourselves permission to be human. But it does something even bigger too. Our honesty shows others that it’s safe for them to open up as well.
Every time you share your story, check in with a friend, or simply say “I’m not okay today,” you help break the silence that keeps so many people struggling alone.
So what do we mean when we say “end the stigma”?
It means removing the shame, judgment, and misconceptions surrounding mental health.
It means replacing “just get over it” with “I’m here for you.”
It means normalising conversations that support healing instead of hiding.
Your voice matters more than you know.
Let’s keep talking, supporting, and reminding each other that mental health IS health.

Everyone deserves tools to feel grounded. What’s one coping skill you’d share with someone living with anxiety? 💛

Prioritising rest is one of the best things you can do for your mind and body. A consistent sleep routine helps improve focus, boosts your mood, supports your immune system and gives your body the time it needs to repair and recharge. Quality sleep also helps reduce stress and makes it easier to stay motivated throughout the day.
Make rest a habit and treat your sleep schedule like an act of self care. Your future self will thank you.
