Hello and welcome to the first edition of 2023 and Happy New Year!
We hope you had an amazing time during December, attending markets, carol services etc and then enjoyed a wonderful Christmas and New Year’s Eve with your loved ones.
Well what will 2023 bring to us? Who knows but hopefully it will be slightly more settled than the last few years!
Of course a landmark event this year will be King Charles III's coronation which will be on Saturday 6th May at Westminster Abbey. Following on from that we will have an extra bank holiday on Monday 8th May.
As for the rest of the year, I guess we’ll have to wait and see what the future holds.
Have a fabulous January, enjoying the calm of a new month and keep warm!
Lisa
