My other passion is crafting. I love to knit. Mostly to make gifts, but I think this one is a keeper. It will be cold enough this weekend 🥶. What are your passions and hobbies? By the way and charity shops are ideal places to buy wool and needles. This pattern is from . I love the simple chunky knit patterns you can get from Loopy Mango. POV knitting helps me stay away from scrolling on my phone 😬.

My dream shopping centre ❤️❤️❤️

Sweden’s ReTuna shopping center reimagines retail by selling only repaired, upcycled, and secondhand items. Instead of discarding waste, broken electronics, furniture, and clothing from local recycling centers are restored and redesigned on site by skilled craftspeople. Each store operates alongside a workshop, turning discarded goods into functional, stylish products. The concept reduces landfill waste, cuts resource consumption, and proves that sustainability and good design can coexist. ReTuna stands as a practical model for circular economies, showing how everyday consumption can be reshaped around reuse rather than constant production.

Wellness Advocate

I love wellness, its my passion. I have worked in the health sector for over 26 years now. Everything I’ve done has been about health, my own, my family and work colleagues. I’m a qualified trainer and for a number of years ran a successful training company called Know More Training . That lead me to working in primary and secondary schools in the School Meals Programme where I spent 13 happy years looking after the the successful delivery of 35,000 meals daily. I used to love visiting the schools and teaching the children about healthy eating. After completing a Post Grad in Health Promotion- Workplace Wellness in NUIG I decided to change careers. Now I work as part of a Enteral Feeding team for Healthcare 21 training nurses and front-line staff in hospitals around Ireland. I’m also a founding member of a The Wellness Lounge. You can find us on Facebook. A group of us wanted to help people when Covid 19 hit and so we created this group so we could have a free platform to give advice and knowledge on all things healthy. I’m not a dietician or a nutritionist so there will be no treatment, diagnosis or advice on medical illnesses. I’m also a mom and wife so I can draw on loads of experience there. I want to make health accessible for all . looking forward to getting to know you.
