I’m nearly halfway through the ‘Swim 10k in November Challenge’ for Cancer Research UK. 4950m swum and 5050m to go.

I’m not built for speed but I am built for endurance! 🤣

As ever, I greatly appreciate all and any donations as maybe like you, I reflect on those I’ve loved and lost to this terrible disease and on those warriors who have battled and won or who are battling at the moment.

Thinking this year in particular, of two wonderful people who left us and who I will never forget.

Swam last night and the night before and will do so the next two mornings and as long as it takes to keep the momentum going.

So please dig deep, every penny counts to help someone we love in some way as they dig deep to weather the storm. Thank you 🙏

It’s been a hugely rewarding 15 months since qualifying as a celebrant with the International College of Professional Celebrants.

Supporting families and individuals through the milestone moments of their lives has been a huge privilege.

It’s been everything I hoped it would be.

After qualifying, I decided to complete a further qualification in Celebrancy which I’ve recently passed and found massively rewarding along the way.

The NOCN Level 3 Certificate in Civil Celebrancy is a well constructed and perfectly balanced programme of professional learning that helps committed and professional celebrants provide you with the best possible personalised and unique services and ceremonies.

Huge thanks to Julie Bisacre for all your support which I’ve greatly appreciated along the way.

Really pleased to have completed the reset of my professional portfolio, allowing me to continue to offer my communications expertise together with Celebrancy and as a fully qualified coach, coaching too, for individuals transitioning to retirement.

Great variety for me yet wonderfully harmonious, utilising all my skills and experience to-date.

So if you’re looking for coaching support as you plan ahead for whatever your retirement journey may look like, whether it’s months or years away OR you are renewing your vows, getting married, naming a little one, or saying goodbye to a loved one, it would be my honour to stand by your side.

A beautiful and poignant day today at Sunrising Natural Burial Ground and Nature Reserve leading a service for a friend who is now resting in this very special place. RIP and sweet dreams x
