Yoga on the Lawn
Our Yoga on the Lawn Day helped us to raise a huge £2165 which was shared between our charity and SOBS (Survivors of Bereavement by Suicide) and The Fire Rescue Service - these two charities are supported by our lovely Yoga Teacher, Grace Moore and are close to her heart as SDBLSS is to ours.
