Hello and welcome to the July edition.
Isn’t it great that we can now be outside for longer in the evenings and what beautiful weather we’ve been having!
Happening this month is the start of the Women’s World Cup, Wimbledon fortnight from 3rd - 16th July and also St. Swithuns Day on the 15th July. According to legend, if it rains on this day, it will continue to rain for 40 days and 40 nights! Let’s hope that it doesn’t!!
More locally we have the Care for Kids Barnstaple 10K, this is a great event raising money for vital services. We also have a feature on the Ramblers, for those who enjoy a little walk.
The children also break up for the summer holidays this month so have a lovely break.
Have an wonderful July and see you next month, Lisa
Finally, if you would like to advertise your business to homes across Barnstaple and the surrounding areas each month, please get in touch.

Do you like...being outdoors, discovering new places, meeting people and preserving the countryside?
If so, have you considered joining the Ramblers? Not only do they play a valuable role in checking and ensuring the maintenance of our footpaths, but they also offer a variety of walks exploring the local area.
Walks of varying lengths are offered twice a week - the weekday walks tend to be shorter (4-6 miles), while the weekend walks are usually longer (8-12 miles).
You can find out about all the walks on our website: ramblers.org.uk/north-devon including a brief description of the walk, its grading and details of where to meet.
It does not cost a lot to join, the walks are free - all our walk leaders are volunteers, and we try to car-share or use the bus where possible. If you would like to try it out first, you can join us for 3 walks before signing up. Once you have joined, you can then walk with other Rambler groups all over the country! Why not give it a go?
