So anyone whose red bin lid is broken, and there are lot of them around, contact NPDC and it will be sorted.

If you had to live out your Christmas days, would you prefer it was a summer Christmas or a winter Christmas?
I'm sure you've got some excess ham at home or cold roast potatoes.
What are some of your favourite ways to use leftover food from Christmas day? Share below.

"You fixed an issue we didn't know he had."
This is a comment I often hear when mothers bring their newborn or baby in for Bowen Therapy.
The gentle Bowen Therapy often results in a reduction of crying and unsettledness, and an improvement in feeding, burping and wind issues.

👶So if your baby gets upset when their arm needs to be put into the cardigan,
👶or when they only lie with their head turned to one side,
👶or when they categorically start screaming when being put into the capsule,
👶or when they latch well on one side, but totally don't on the other,
👶if they struggle with wind,
👶if they start crying when you touch their heads,
👶or if they had a traumatic birthing process,
you might want to try Bowen Therapy for them. It might just be what they need💚
