Amazing day today at the National Portage Association development day. I learned a lot, talked to some every day heroes and heard about some fantastic research. If you don't know what Portage is please look it up. Making a difference to children and families every day πŸ™Œ

We're going on a bear hunt in Southport 😁 pictures to follow (you can take the girl out of the nursery but....)

Cheers Friday peeps πŸ€“
