Who could possibly have imagined we would be living in Lockdown through Liberation75 celebrations – what a turn of world events! Not to be discouraged we have soldiered on, working from home and rigorously getting everything together to bring you this momentous issue through the media of electronic devices…frustrating though this may seem on some levels, it has given us opportunity to learn and grow and not least of which, are ways we can reduce are carbon footprint in times to come…to this end, we have been busy creating a new website www.thejerseylife.co.uk So in this issue you can enjoy; Caroline Spencer’s interview regarding my great privilege of being able to interview and write about the late Michael Ginns MBE who tirelessly worked toward reconciliation after being interned during WW2. Mark Shields’ - Repurposing your business in uncertain times; Setting up a Home Office; How to be a Happy Working Parent During Lockdown (no mean feat); Why exercise is good for you and our particularly relevant fashion feature - Lounge Wear When Working From Home! (my favourite attire whilst writing, my husband refers to as my Noel Coward look!)

Interview with Jersey’s very own Slimming Together guru, Joanne Reid Rodrigues turned out to be fascinating as Joanne shares her take on Faith. Keeping us busy is Katya Pastorini with ideas on how to create a Vintage look in our homes plus an interesting piece on turning treasured photos into works of art and our gardening article - How to make Gardening Childs Play. Reaching out and helping others is even more important than usual right now so do read ‘Helping Headway in these uncertain times’. Not that we can go anywhere at the moment but we can dream of times to come when we are free to move at will again – meanwhile you might enjoy our Road Test - Mercedes GLS on page 57. It just remains for me to say STAY SAFE –READ AT HOME! …and until next month when we might be stepping out beyond our personal thresholds into a very different world…
