Today isn’t just about the flowers or the chocolates, certainly not in my house anyway! 😉
It’s about paying it forward. I’ve been lucky enough to experience some incredible support from friends and expertise from local businesses lately, and I wanted to share that love back with all of you. 💌
When you find people who truly care about what they do, it makes all the difference. Check out these local gems I’m celebrating this Valentine's Day:
🌊Stollies Swim Academy– Now based just outside Hitchin! Their individualised and inclusive 1:1 and 1:2 lessons are absolute magic for building confidence in the water.
⚽️ Ben Stevens Coaching – Such a positive role model. Honestly, I never thought we'd pay for private football coaching, but Ben is worth every single penny. The positivity and confidence he brings is unmatched!
🧘♀️ Charlie yoga – Bringing the ultimate positive vibes and yoga sessions to Stondon, Shefford, and Pirton. Exactly what the soul needs to de-stress.
💇♀️HJ Hair (Biggleswade) – My absolute sanctuary. The most relaxing space created by such a chilled and trusted stylist. Every visit feels like a total reset.
🎸 Joe Pushkin Guitar Lessons Stotfold & Letchworth These are genuinely the best 1:1 music lessons I’ve ever seen. The way he teaches such a wide variety of musical skills is incredible.
💎 Kiss of Ink Tattoo and Piercing– The exciting new addition to Shefford! I can’t wait to visit and might even be brave enough to give it a go myself! 💉✨
Let’s keep the "pay it forward" chain going! If you’ve had a great experience with a local business or someone who has gone above and beyond, give them a shoutout in the comments below! 👇
