We're absolutely thrilled to be able to bring you Christmas Shopping to Music! Our friends at RotaryatKingsholm Gloucester have very kindly organised for local music groupsGloucester Brass Band and Winds of Change Wind Band to play some festive tunes while you shop. Rotary will of course have their collection buckets at the ready and the Footsteps team will be on hand to answer any questions or just say hi. We hope to see you on Westgate Street on 11th!
Something you may wish to join in with this December - the #AdventToRemember project 💙👣Throwback to last years #AdventToRemember.
Christmas is hard if you are grieving. It’s hard when the world is *still* fighting a pandemic too.
If you want something to give a little focus to each day, why not join in?
Starting on Wednesday, do something everyday (or just some days) with the person you are missing in mind. Go big, go small. Whatever it is, I’m looking forward to joining in with everyone next month.
Check the hashtag and the link on my website for more info or drop me a DM.
