A Letter from Our MD... We smile more when we are outdoors. It's good for us too; engaging with nature is scientifically proven to be beneficial to your body mind and soul. But too often we don't take advantage of what's on our doorstep, however simple it is to step outside and find a green space to just take in nature.
I always feel better outdoors; you feel more alive, you enjoy better conversation, are less distracted by screens and you are always much more in the moment. So this Christmas take some time to give the gift of adventure and #Get Outside

Mappy Christmas Crafts Don't want to chuck out your old paper maps, but need room on the shelf for new ones?! Put them to good use with these 10 mappy Christmas craft ideas...
1. Mappy Christmas Tree The focal point of most homes at Christmas time is the tree. So get folding and be the envy of your neighbours with this mappy masterpiece of a tree!
Make yours with this quick guide.
2. Ditch the baubles There's heaps of different mappy ornaments you could make to adorn your Christmas tree. Map stars, hearts, angels, reindeer, snowflakes, the options are endless! Simply cut some shapes out of maps, mount them onto card, punch a hole in the top and loop some string though and voila!
Here's how Jamie at Splendry made hers.
3. Globe garlands Try your hand at origami with these fantastic mappy globe garlands. Fold, flip, repeat and blow to inflate them into cute little globe shapes. They may look a tad tricky to make, but Poppytalk have a helpful step-by-step guide for you to follow here. WWW.SHOP.ORDNANCESURVEY.CO.UK
5. Reach for the stars! Add the finishing touch to your Christmas decorations at home with these awesome 3D star decorations.
Pillar Box Blue‘s template is here.
6. Make your own cards Mappy Christmas cards are a great way to delight. Make them personal with the section on the map from where they live, or their favourite place. Stars, Christmas trees, and baubles are all easy shapes to use.
7. Get map-wrap happy Possibly the most simple yet effective idea yet, wrap your Christmas presents in your old paper maps. Rather than ripping the paper off with reckless abandon, you can give the gift of geography before they've even opened up their present.
8. Decorate the dining table A bunch of map flowers would make the perfect finishing touch to your Christmas dining table. Even better, borrow or buy a Christmas-themed hole-punch and scatter map-snowflakes across the Christmas crockery!
