    February 17, 2021 / No Comments

    The last year has brought new challenges for many of us, with financial insecurity, health anxiety and social isolation becoming the norm. Few have been impacted more heavily than mums and parents, who in addition to the above have had to take on essential new roles – including homeschool teacher and family hairdresser.  That’s why, this Mother’s Day, we want to repay mums, parents, caregivers and mother-figures across the UK for all the hard work and additional unpaid labour they have taken on this year. If you want to join us in showing your gratitude, here are a few helpful things you can do to repay them for all that…

    14 gift ideas that won’t get regifted this December

    December 2, 2020 / No Comments

    We’ve all received, and probably given, gifts that call on our poker face skills. Finding good Christmas gifts can be tricky, particularly if you’re shopping for someone with discerning tastes. Unsurprisingly, more than half of us have received unwanted gifts, according to a survey by Finder.com. Whether it’s a loud jumper from your gran or a helmet from Dad for the bicycle you sold two years ago, some Christmas presents just don’t hit the mark. These well-meaning gifts can be expensive too; the average unsuitable gift costs £47.10 and we receive an average of three every year. As a nation, we’re thought to be spending more than £5 billion every…

    Christmas comes early for a young unsung hero

    November 25, 2020 / No Comments

    Did you know that there are 800,000 young carers in the UK today? At secondary school age, these children look after at least one relative with disability, illness or mental health condition – sometimes spending up to 30 hours a week on care. Meet Young Carer, Ian Ian, age 16, from London is just one. Since the age of 13, he’s been a full-time carer for his mum, who suffered a posterior circulation stroke, and his younger brother, who has autism. Every day, and without hesitation, Ian manages household chores from cooking meals to cleaning and tending to his brother, on top of his busy school schedule. “I’m very proud…
