It’s in the bag

Did you know that over 31,000 children in England are taken into foster care every year?

Or that nearly 300 of them live in Nottingham – that’s one child entering foster care in Nottingham alone every 32 hours?

As a foster carer who accepts emergency placements, Nicola Barber understands only too well how arriving in an unfamiliar environment, often with few if any possessions, can affect a child’s pride, self esteem, dignity and confidence.

And it’s that understanding which inspired her to find a way to make a difference to some of the city’s most vulnerable…

Primary teacher, parent and taekwondo instructor Nicola joins the Girls Around Town in the studio this weekend to explain how, with the help of family and friends, she set out to do just that through the charity My Bag.

To help foster children have a more positive experience, My Bag provides a holdall filled with a variety of items they can call their own for as long as they wish to and take with them should they move.

“We want children in foster care to feel like children and we believe this is an important first step in doing so,” says Nicola. “Hopefully it will give them some self esteem and confidence and go some way towards helping them feel like they belong.”

Tune in or listen online between 10am and 12 noon on Sunday to find out just how the system works and what goes into each My Bag holdall.

And how you could help Nicola and her fellow trustees continue to make a difference for these children at a difficult time in their lives…

Nourish the skin you’re in

NOURISH (verb) : Provide with the food or other substances necessary for growth, health and good condition

Online, on TV or in magazines – wherever you look, there’s no shortage of advice about how to nourish your body, about what to eat (and what not to eat!) to stay healthy.

But just how much do you know about making sure you’re nourishing your skin in the best way possible too?

Step forward Shona Munro, this Sunday‘s guest on Girls Around Town, whose luxurious award-winning skincare and perfumes are handmade in small batches, organic, vegan, with no water added and non-toxic.

She’ll be explaining what inspired her to set up Skin Elixir, describing some of the challenges she’s faced and talking about where she’s hoping to take the business in the future on this week’s show with Rosalyn and June.

There’ll be news too of Let Go & Flow Inner Sanctum Sunday, when Shona will be joining forces with Dena Smiles of Probiotic Love to host a celebration of some of Nottingham‘s finest wellbeing practitioners.

Find out what they have planned for Sunday 24 June, when a yoga class, Shamanic Open Heart Drumming Meditation and a range of workshops will be among the treats on offer during this four-hour retreat, which starts with a Probiotic Love Kombucha cocktail on arrival and includes a delicious lunch and goody bag too.

Tune in or listen online between 10am and 12 noon to discover how to nourish – and love – the skin you’re in…
