*in association with Visit RCT and Rhondda Heritage Park As my children ran around the playground at Rhondda Heritage Park, the Museum of Welsh Mining, I couldn’t help but be drawn to the huge metal structure of the former Lewis Merthyr Colliery towering over us. It felt so surreal watching the...
*paid collaboration with Visit Rhondda Cynon Taf What a scorching few days it’s been! I’m sure my children aren’t the only ones struggling with the heat…. so what better place to cool off than Lido Ponty, the National Lido of Wales in Pontypridd? We went along on Saturday afternoon as part...

*In association with Poundland My children love getting creative but I’m never going to be one of those amazing Pinterest mums coming up with jaw-dropping arts and crafts projects. In fact, making stuff with three children aged 7, 5 and 3, can be chaotic, stressful and messy, so I need...
