There’s not long to go now until the kids go back to school. (Why not take a look at our ‘Back to school healthcare‘ feature?)
While the youngsters might not be entirely thrilled by the prospect, it’s perfectly possible for adults to find some enjoyable ‘studies’ to take away the boredom that comes from not having the kids around…!
This mini series has three parts: part one on Tuesday, part two on Wednesday, and part three on Thursday, all before we hit September!
In part three we take a look at how to bake amazing bread at home with One Mile Bakery Hale, photography courses with Weston Digital Imaging & Media and how you can get yourself flexible and strong with Alderley Pilates.
