Summer has finally delivered some sunshine! Just as we shoved the last of our summer clothes under the bed and resignedly dug out those scarves and mittens, the temperature rocketed into an unseasonable heatwave. In fact, it’s been predicted that by Saturday Britain will be hotter than parts of Hawaii – get those grass skirts out!

Here are a few of Nurishment’s top tips on how to make the most of this unexpected sunshine bonus:

 - Hit the beach. Crowds of sunseekers have been flocking to the coastline, and it would be rude not to join them. Bring on the ice cream.

- Host a barbeque. Forget the DVD nights and cosy meals in we’d usually be having at this time of year – crank out the charcoal, grab a bottle of Encona sauce and get cooking al fresco!

- Get moving. Drag those trainers out from their dark corner and head outdoors – exercise is much nicer in the sunshine. Why not gather a group of friends and go cycling – don’t forget your picnic!

The school summer holidays seem so long ago!

Parents up and down the country are well and truly back into the manic world of the school run, dirty sports kits, packed lunches and difficult maths homework.

At the same time, college and university students will be setting the alarm clock for those 9 o’clock lectures and getting ready to get back into their routine. Just as the days get greyer and shorter!

Talking of going back to school, a big congratulations to Gemma from Bradford who won £500 worth of book vouchers in our recent competition!

If you’re busy juggling work and kids or about to go back to university and get your head stuck in the books, grab a handy-sized bottle of Nurishment Extra to give you that extra boost to keep you going!

And remember…  the next holidays will be here before you know it!
