Not quite the Easter weekend that we planned but managed a short walk in the sunshine!

Hair styled by the wind and the other half, turns out it’s really difficult to tie your hair up with one arm! 🤦‍♀️

Doggy parents! Get your doggy treats and poo bags while you’re in #boggartholeclough from lakesidecafe_boggartholeclough (we/us/all)!! All proceeds go towards funding community events organised by Lakeside CIC

Our weekend has been dominated by rugby, with a park visit thrown in for good measure!

One player of the week, three rugby games, two children stuck up a tree, a tonne of washing and some Beaver prep for tomorrow night! Wouldn’t swap it for the world 😍

#MCRbarks this is what I love about social media! Love it MCRparks 💚

No dog pics from me, I am still resisting the pressure from the boys to get a dog - despite the fact that I want one more than them! I’ll have a look for an old pic 🐾

On the school trip to Bolsover Castle today, 48 infant school children dressed as kings, queens, knights and dragons!

And just like that we have a 7 year old, what a way to spend your birthday! 🎂

7 years ago today there was a train strike, my car broke down and my waters broke 🤦‍♀️

The next day Alex arrived and made us a family of four and it’s been just as chaotic since - I wouldn’t swap it for the world 😍

We’ve been using the #Saferparks report to help identify what we do well to make women and girls feel safer and where we can do more.

Active bystander training for every colleague and making them easier to identify were our early actions - literally amazing to see! 💜
