Young Girls In Sport*
We regularly hear experts commending the role that sport plays for young people, particularly as the UK has hit a devastating record for childhood obesity. However, according to the charity Women in Sport, 1.5 million fewer women and girls enjoy the physical, social and health benefits of sport and physical exercise than men. I have teamed up with the Director of Sport at a co-educational preparatory school for children aged 2-13 years, to provide some insight into how the school is addressing this national issue and why sport is so important for girls from an early age.

5 Reasons to Try Craft Beer with Melving Brewing*
I think one of the things people will take away from this strange time is to really embrace new life and try new things. So here is a suggestion… how about making the switch from mass marketed larger from a mainstream brewery to craft beers. As we all know, the pandemic is going to hit small independent businesses a lot harder than it will big companies.
