Yesterday we headed over to @emberwoodbath for the latest @bathlifemag Network Lunch with the @bathrugbyfoundation . We heard from Lynne Fernquest on the vital work being done for young people in the city, plus insights from the continued sponsors Ian Lloyd at @milstedlangdon on why they continue to support the event and Siân Keady from the @suttonhotelcollection on why they chose to host the lunches and why bringing this community together matters.
Big thanks to everyone who joined the conversation!

A fantastic day out in nature just 2 miles outside of Bath! Caisson Gardens is opening soon with selected dates in April, May and June. Pre-booking is essential, please head to /events to get your tickets.
This is your chance to enjoy a wonderfully varied and tranquil garden centred around a historic Georgian house with wildflower meadows, formal planting, woodland and ruins from the Somerset coal canal amongst the grounds. The gardening ethos focuses on soil health, regenerative practices and biodiversity and as a result buzzing wildlife can be found everywhere you look. It is a wonderfully romantic and magical garden complete with ponds, rills, topiary, a walled garden including greenhouses, pottager beds and an orchard. Not to forget incredible homemade tea and cakes for sale which are not to be missed!
