Since 2022, we’ve run 20+ wellbeing retreats for loads of awesome groups including veterans, the wider armed forces community and the police.
In 6 weeks, I am hosting our first ever ‘Women in the Armed Forces Community’ retreat and I’m so bloody EXCITED!
This fabulous group will be made up of:
⭐️ Serving personnel
⭐️ Veterans
⭐️ Family members
⭐️ Reservists
⭐️ Cadet Force Adult Volunteers
As it’s the first all-women YourNorth retreat, we wanted it to be extra special.
So, we have teamed up with a fabulous organisation who are joining us to deliver an afternoon of empowerment & fun…more will be revealed soon 🤩
If you have registered your interest to attend this retreat, keep an eye on your emails this afternoon!

We recently had the pleasure of spending the day with this amazing group of women from the veteran community, qualifying them as First Aiders for Mental Health 🧠💚
We chatted about so much, including:
🔹 signs & symptoms of a range of mental health conditions
🔹 how to start a potentially difficult conversation
🔹 when, where and how to signpost someone for professional help
Special shout out to Female Veterans Alliance for booking us to run this course for their community 💚

Over the next few hours, social media will be full of photos - matching PJs, piles of presents, immaculate tablescapes, fun times & happy get togethers.
And we bloody love seeing it all!
We genuinely do.
Are we in matching PJs?
Nope! Tbh we’re grateful (and surprised!) that the Littlest North has clothes on 🫣
Is our house spotless & clutter free?
Absolutely not - there’s crap everywhere and we defo need to run the hoover around!
Gentle reminder that a photo is a snapshot of a moment in time, so please be kind with yourself, especially during a potentially stressful time.
We all do things in a different way.
And that’s ok.
It’s more than ok.
And what you have done is enough.
We wish you all a peaceful few days, celebrated or not celebrated however you choose to do so.
🎄 Merry Christmas from Team Farr🎄

Super grateful for the amazing conversations throughout the day and for everyone’s amazing contributions! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Huge thanks to Veterans' Foundation for the funding to our nonprofit so we were able to deliver this toolkit for our veteran community 💙
Guess who didn’t take any photos!? 🫣

If you’re wondering why we’ve been quiet on here lately, I’ve been a lil busy with Female Veterans Alliance 🙃💙
On International Volunteer Day, I want to take a moment to shine a huge spotlight on Kelly ✨
She has worked tirelessly over the last few months to organise what is going to be an incredible Glitter Ball for our female veterans next week.
From planning, coordinating and creating the tiniest touches, to ensuring the day feels special, safe and celebratory for the women who served, Kelly has thought of everything 💛
Alongside everything she does for FVA, she also runs two businesses: a wellbeing training company, YourNorth and YourNorth Veteran Support CIC, supporting the mental health & wellbeing of the armed forces and emergency services communities.
Kelly - you’re phenomenal, and I’m so grateful for you!

We often get asked ‘Why did you start this company?’ It’s a question we spent a long time pondering before we made the leap from full-time secure employment to branching out on our own. The answer is people - or more specifically, we wanted to help people.
Until recently, both Jamie & I were serving in the Royal Air Force (we have 41 combined years of service between us!). Over the last 5 years, we have been on a pretty epic self-development journey and we realised that our passion was to help people unlock their potential. Sounds corny, I know...and it’s true!
So, following many late-night chats drilling down into the ‘Why?’, YourNorth was born.
Our company offers a variety of training, including accredited First Aid for Mental Health training, mindset & wellbeing workshops and tailored coaching packages. There are so many training companies out there, offering very similar content to us, so what makes us different? What makes us the special fish in a sea of other training and coaching companies? We believe that we are filling a niche for bespoke training; we offer a suite of masterclasses that can be selected to form a workshop, whilst also offering accredited mental health training.
What if, by educating and empowering you and/or your staff, you could prevent certain mental health illnesses and burnout from happening? By educating people on the causes of some mental illnesses and delving into topics such as stress, resilience, mindfulness, sleep hygiene, goal setting, to name a few, this may be the answer to having a thriving workforce. Prevention is better than correction.
Passionate about mental wellness, human performance and wellbeing; we are fascinated about ‘why we do what we do’ and love the opportunity to get to know people and instigate conversations that pique curiosity to encourage people to question the ‘why?’ and the ‘why not?’
Our goal is to educate and empower others so they have the confidence and ability to unlock their potential and become the best version of themselves. We are experienced and engaging trainers & coaches aiming to create a relaxed, positive environment conducive to learning and one that allows for personal growth.
We have quickly adapted to the ‘new normal’ and pivoted our business to deliver our accredited mental health training online. Our courses are now delivered via distance learning, which makes our training super flexible and accessible.
If you would like to see the training syllabus, understand the distance learning pathway and book a course, please visit our website at www.yournorth.co.uk
We’ve been pretty busy over on Twitter and recently been crowned #KingOf Mental Wellbeing. We’ve also been chosen by Theo Paphitis to win his Small Business Sunday competition...go us! Come and give us a follow and we’ll follow you back twitter.com/YourNorth_
