June Joy of Summer 🌤️


June is jam packed with joy, hope and happiness.

The first month of summer, a favourite for weddings and fun times for exuberant exam finishers. Hopeful new beginnings all round!

We take to the outdoors in droves too, unpacking summer sandals and packing out parks, beaches and the first festivals. A nostalgic time of years, with longer evenings to remember the good old days. And a long summer ahead to make new memories.

So it’s the perfect time of year to take up a hobby, plan more moments of self-care, or simply enjoy more time in nature, while the weather is fine.

The arrival of Summer is a reminder to:

  • Enjoy more wellbeing boosting moments outdoors.

  • Connect with loved ones and friends, near or far.

  • Appreciate ‘the good’, old or new.
