#LearnForLove – new family health and wellbeing resources worth £100 for every Somerset resident

 A new series of online relationship, health and wellbeing resources worth £100 per person have been launched in Somerset. The learning resources are available to all Somerset residents, and span topics such as pregnancy, labour and birth, parenting, mental health and wellbeing, and relationships.

Residents can access the online learning by:

• Visiting bit.ly/LearnForLove or scanning a QR code with their phone
• Entering the code ‘dragon’

They can then choose the subjects they are most interested in learning about – there is no limit on the number of resources residents can access. An email address is needed for those signing up, but no other personal information is needed.

#LearnForLove is a Connect Somerset Project delivered by Somerset Council. Connect Somerset is a partnership between Somerset Council, Somerset NHS, Voluntary, Community, Faith and Social Enterprises (VCFSEs), schools, colleges and early years settings, which aims to make it easier for Somerset residents to get the help they need and to get it early.

Yoga with Terry

When I don’t stretch & move my body for a few days, I know about it!  

There are the physical niggles – tight muscles, stiffer joints…

Yoga eases out all of these tight spots, and strengthens my weaker areas.

Yoga also gives me precious time to stop moving too. To be really still – and to loosen the grip that my thoughts have on things too.

Yoga gives me time to be.

Come and join me for a drop in session next week…

On Monday in Wootton Courtenay or Wheddon Cross Village Halls.

Or on Friday in the Good Vibe Veg field at Horner Farm!
