Welcome…
Welcome to the March/April edition of The Bradgate Magazine.
With the first day of Spring landing on the 20th March this year – astronomically at least, on the vernal equinox – it’s time to
gratefully welcome in more sunshine and longer days.
This means getting out and about offers even greater value – to this end look no further than what Leicestershire & Rutland Wildlife
Trust has to offer, in their very special triple milestone anniversary year at that; from Wild Walks to Osprey Cruises, Open Days and
more we love that you can have a great day out all whilst supporting this fantastic charity.
Talking of things we love – there’s a nice article courtesy of Visit Leicester – on 12 brilliant things you can do now that you couldn’t
do 20 years ago … if you were to put indoor bouldering and rock climbing, axe throwing and escape rooms on that list, you’d definitely
be on the right track!
To finish we’ve some nice news stories too, one from the good folk at the Joe Humphries Memorial Trust – at it again helping
youngsters maximise their potential, and another from the Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust, who’s new frenotomy service is
helping babies with tongue-tie. Lovely!
So why not sit back and relax and we hope you enjoy the read!
Best regards
Jo
