I had fun with Keith - thank you

“When Wendy Haines was handed her redundancy after 20 years in a job, she didn't hesitate; She took the cheque, ran, and built something entirely her own.What followed was over a decade of grinding, networking, working behind a pub bar just to meet locals, and slowly building a client base that now books holidays two and three years in advance. Today Wendy runs an award-winning independent travel agency, holds the title of top agent for Riviera Travel across the UK and Ireland, and has created one of the most talked about solo travel communities for women in the country, Wendy's Wanderers, with over 1,200 members and trips running back to back across the globe.In this episode, Wendy shares:Why she took redundancy and never looked back after two decades on the high streetHow she chose which village to move to specifically because of how it would grow her businessThe origin of Wendy's Wanderers and why it accidentally became a national movementWhat the current travel market really looks like and how she is holding her own while others are down 20%Why her clients book years in advance and what that says about the value of trustWhere she sees AI fitting into the business and what she still needs to figure outThis is a conversation about backing yourself when the paycheque disappears, building a business on reputation rather than budget, and why the travel agent is far from dead.If you are building a service business on loyalty and word of mouth, or simply love the idea of adventure without the hassle, this one is for you”

🌎 5th June is World Environment Day - it's time for nature! 🌎

The foods we eat, the air we breathe, the water we drink and the climate that makes our planet habitable all come from nature.

We can visit glaciers, deserts,mountains and jungles. We can see the animals that live there. We can sail the oceans and rivers.

What a wonderful world we live in 🌎

Do you know the story of ‘Hope’ ?

Hope started her journey over 8 years ago as a cuddly gift, left for children back in the days of our caravan holidays. I chose her from several cuddlies. I fell in love with her.

As always, much of what happens in me&dee world is due to my reaction of things I hear, the need I see. It became a theme of ‘I worry so much about forgetting the sound of their voice’. ‘The separation in our family is awful for long hospital stays’.

And so I devised a means of having a recorder button in one of Hopes ears, and little note-lets and mini pencil in the other.

Dozens of Hopes are now sent out as a comfort memory keeper, as a way of keeping in touch, as a way to keep secrets.

She also is a beautiful memory keeper with a heart shaped tin in her ear, for Derby mortuary.

When people buy a Hope for £30 to pass on to a family, they are thanked for ‘Being a Giver of Hope’.

We have our annual June fundraiser in action.

30 days of Hope during 30 days of June.

We have fundraising packs with a special money box to collect £30 in. A fun poster.

£1 a day for 30 days.
30 hop, skips, jumps.
Brownies, guides, schools, companies, individuals can all take part.

Making a difference. Being a memory maker by raising just £30.

The link to the page on our website and how to take part is in the first comment on this post.

Or, you can find out more by ringing the office on 01332 297011.

30 Days of June.

We hope to be supported to purchase 30 Hopes.

Thank you to Pennline
