Weddings are a once in a lifetime event. Making the most the Big Day is so important for the memories that it will create for the years to come and for the joy that can be shared by family and loved ones. From the perspective of the Bride, this special day just has to be perfect.

Once Christmas and New Year are past and Spring is on the horizon thoughts, for many, turn to giving their home a fresh look. For some the idea of DIY is anathema, but for many it is the remedy for tired rooms, jaded property and the opportunity to be creative in rebuilding, adding on, or repairing damage sustained during the Winter months. For those for whom property as their business this applies no less as business assets need to be kept habitable, safe and legal.

Are you dreading driving around Hitchin trying to find somewhere to park to get your Christmas shopping done? Fear no more! You can park all day for a donation of £3 at Hitchin Priory on Saturday 12th and 19th December and it's all for a good cause.
