We are fortunate to live in such a place of peace and tranquility.

Some would claim the serenity of our area may be too quiet at times but the pace of life is one that many have clamoured for over the past few years.

The pandemic and cost of living crisis have perhaps made many people question what is truly important in their lives.

Of course for the most part many people will have the same priorities.

Family, health and finances will always be among the top three concerns and rightfully so.

We all know the current problems the country is enduring will impact the vast majority of us.

If they have not already as is the case for so many of us.

Thankfully we have respite in our communities and those around us.

Perhaps a community group or maybe a good group of friends who share common interests.

Such activities can take our minds off our worries, even if it merely a distraction over a drink, meal, walk or quick catch up.

These little things, these simple pleasures, can mean the world and they are as important now as they have ever been.

So get involved and take the initiative and give your friends and family a call today. You will not regret seizing the day.
