My 8-year-old son is a huge nature lover (watch out David Attenborough 😄), and after recently learning that ducks, swans and geese are much healthier when they eat the right foods, he decided he wanted to help spread the word and encourage people not to automatically reach for the bread bag every time.

Most of us grew up feeding ducks bread… turns out it’s not actually that great for their little tummies 🫣😬

So if you’re heading over this half term to visit our feathery friends, why not consider making your own healthy mix (see poster for ideas)?
Or, if you don’t have time, Joe has made up some little bags himself which he is selling for £1 each. He’s left an honesty box next to the marina office.

J says: ”It’s still good to feed the ducks because they need our help and it’s fun, but we need to keep them safe.” 🦆

Any questions, or if you need to contact us about it, just drop me a DM.

Thanks so much for your support ☺️

💙 Mental Health Awareness Week 💙

One thing we’ve learnt from life on the river is how much people need time to slow down.

The water has a way of helping people switch off for a while, less pressure, less noise, more fresh air, conversation and calm.

Whether it’s a boat trip, a walk, a coffee outside, or just sitting in nature for ten minutes, taking time outdoors is really beneficial…. It’s matters!

If you are struggling right now, remember it’s ok to not to be ok! Please don’t struggle alone. There is lots of support out there. Reach out and speak to someone 🙏

Useful numbers:
• MIND - 0300 123 3393
• Samaritans – 116 123 (24/7)
• NHS Mental Health Support – call 111 and select the mental health option
• SHOUT crisis text line – text SHOUT to 85258
• Childline – 0800 1111

Look after yourselves this week. 🌿
