Mother’s Day may be the reason we pause this month, but it’s not the only one.
Between raising children, caring for ageing parents and trying to stay on top of our own wellbeing, May’s line-up of events is a gentle nudge to spend time with the people who matter, and to show up for yourself too.
Whether it’s a hands-on experience with your mum, a day out with your child, a long-overdue catch-up with your mum friends, or a workshop that helps you better understand your body and mind, these are the events worth making space for.
