Family Fun Winter Activities: Start the New Year
1st Jan 2024
What’s a better way to start the new year than to enjoy it outside? January is perfect for breaking through the winter blues, dressing warm and cosy, and enjoying the beautiful outdoors.
Spending time outdoors will improve your mental and physical well-being. Exposure to the sun increases your vitamin D and serotonin levels (the happy hormone!). Now’s the time to ditch your family’s winter hibernation and visit Stockeld Park!
