I love the Christmas lights in Sheffield this year. Especially the trees at the top of Fargate and in Leah’s Yard.

I also had an acoustic neuroma, which was removed at the Hallamshire, and have been deaf in one ear since. What an amazing neurology department they have there - we are so lucky in Sheffield to have it.

This is a small Sheffield charity specialising in giving the gift of top-quality, diverse live music to children from birth, so the money raised makes a massive difference. ConcerTEAMies (see what we did there) is still recruiting for its first-ever half marathon.

🏃‍♀️Ready to run 🏃‍♀️ My next half marathon will be with an amazing team of people running for Sheffield charity Concerteenies at the Sheffield Half Marathon in March. Every penny raised will give babies & their families access to musical participation - no matter their start in life or background.
