I have been a little quiet on ‘X’ as I have had the honour of introducing my family to the amazing place I get to work and call home.

I can’t believe we are heading into week 4 of the better health sessions with 43 sign ups across 4 group !

Unbelievable effort from Sam today to break the Jacob's Ladder record ascent time. 699 steps and 281m long, the record is 5:19. Sam flew up it in 5:21, missing out on the record by just 2 seconds! Incredible try though, and great to see the kids going for the junior record too

End of week review: week one of Better Health groups delivered to over 40 people across 4 sessions on Saint Helena ! Already seeing some great results at the second session for @sthelenaairport! Well done guys 👏🏻
