A decade of devotion William and Kate celebrate their 10th wedding anniversary.

The decade William and Kate have spent together has been significant not just for the arrival of three children, but the dawning of a new and rather troubled era of royal life where the groom’s own brother has fled the nest of the Windsors.

The marriage ceremony for took place at Westminster Abbey on April 29, 2011.

It was overseen

by Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams, in front of the families of the bride and groom, as well as members of foreign royalty, diplomats, and the couple’s chosen personal guests.

The costs of the wedding itself were borne by the royal family and the Middletons themselves, with a guest list totalling 1,900 people.

A third of those went on to a royal luncheon, with a privileged final 300 attending an evening dinner hosted by the Prince of Wales.

In terms of the stats behind the day, over two million people lined the streets to get a glimpse of the happy couple as they made their way to and from Westminster Abbey.

Their new titles, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, were

announced by the Queen at 8am on the day of the wedding; while the flower budget alone was estimated at half a million pounds (that’s a third more than the wedding dress).

In the years that followed the couple have carried out their duties with exemplary calm and

compassion. While others have faltered, William and Kate have strode forward with humility and a connectedness to the British public.

Royal Correspondent Jennie Bond says the way the couple have gone about their duties has been impressive. “I think they’re doing well at having a

normal family life.

The family are continuing the tradition they’ve adopted from years ago which is to give the press some access at key moments and then hope that their privacy will be respected the rest of the time.”

As far as Kate’s immersion into royal life goes, clearly the births of princes George and Louis (2013 and 2018 respectively) and Princess Charlotte (2015), have endeared her to almost every onlooker, and that’s particularly impressive in a world of 24/7 media and Twitterati.

“I think there’s a lot less deference now,” says Bond. “We know a lot more about them and I think people are demanding that the royal family be much more accountable for their actions, socially and financially.

“William and Kate are absolutely the best exemplars of this and I’m sure they will go on to be in future too.”

Sleep Easy Why getting your head down may be the best thing you can do for your health and wellbeing.

Sleep: the science

We all know how valuable a good night’s sleep is… or rather, how bad we feel when we don’t get one!

The value of rest is recognisable in the fact we spend a third of our lives in bed. And sure enough, most of us can reel off a good number of the benefits of sleep – sharpness, mood enhancement, the fending off of low moods, a lowering of blood pressure, better immunisation, improved memory, stress reduction and even maintaining of body weight.

The environment

First, consider what’s around you. Studies have shown that smartphones and device usage is on the increase and it’s the ‘blue light’ emissions from these that can delay the release of sleep-inducing melatonin, as well as resetting the body’s internal clock (circadian rhythm).

Moving away from screens earlier – scientists recommend at least an hour before you plan on going to sleep – will limit the bouts of LCD exposure which excite brain stimulators, therefore helping you maximise sleep efficiency.

Remember as well the need to moderate room temperature, as well dimming lighting and removing excess noise around you.

And while the act of sleeping is more important than anything you may consume in the lead-up to it, it goes without saying there are certain food and drink items that will hamper effective rest.

While alcohol may enable you to drop off quicker, it’s disruptive to your sleep in the second half of the night, not least if you are in a state of dehydration.

Consider as well the impact sugar, carbonated drinks and caffeine might have on the body at a time when it is trying to wind down. An old favourites such as Horlicks, with a soothing malt content, has been scientifically proven to aid rest.

The routine… and a plan

Scientific studies have shown that regularity and repetition is the important where sleep is concerned.

Your body feeds off continuity and structure in its waking hours, so why should things be any different when it comes to sleep?

Sleep doctors have begun recommending a trial week of ‘regular as clockwork’ bedtimes, with long rests and the adoption of healthy habits.

They then invite people to see if they feel improved in all those physical and psychological aspects. In many cases, the results have gone to show why getting your head down may be the best thing you can do not just for your health and wellbeing, but To advertise your business call 01730 260746 or email your sanitysales@thedirectorygroup.co.uk too.

Refresh & Redesign Spring is the ideal time to consider revamping your home, indoors and outdoors. Big or small, a spring renovation project is a great way to breathe new life into your living environment and there are plenty of ways to update your home without the messy overhaul or vast expense of remodelling.

REFRESH...

Rather than bidding farewell to your sofa or dining chairs, you can reupholster your furniture to immediately update your home.

By adding new fabric to an existing armchair or sofa can create a chic modern style that will look as good as new. Easier additions, such as swapping in new throws or cushion covers each season is a great way to give your living room a fresh feel.

REVAMP...

You don’t need to fork out on expensive redecorating fees to revamp. Whether you gloss your walls, kitchen cupboards or even

front door, adding new pops of colour to your home can make it feel like an entirely new space. Other small touches you can update your home with can include: updating a kitchen backsplash with new tiles, replacing doorknobs, light switches and handles or even styling your walls with artwork and prints. The possibilities are endless!

RADIATE...

Choose your colours carefully, consider the natural light sources, avoid dark colours in rooms that are already dark. Of course, lighting is an essential aspect of interior design, as it enhances the aesthetic appeal and creates the ambience of a living space.

Lighting can also make a huge difference to your outside space, try re-arranging garden features and strategically place lights to form focal points to your garden, illuminating a sculpture, water feature or seating areas.

Whatever you choose to do, step inside your home as though you are a visitor and think about that first impression. Consider how the rooms flow together and brainstorm what small changes you could make that will make a big difference in creating a fabulous home.

Bonkers for Brunch Not quite breakfast yet not quite lunch, Brunch is a staple of the modern weekend lifestyle.

Brunch originally began as a Sunday affair, with English writer Guy Beringer credited as the first person to propose the idea of a meal in between breakfast and lunch in his 1985 essay “Brunch: A Plea.” He states: “brunch would serve as the perfect remedy for Sunday morning hangovers - and it could be the perfect social gathering at which to share stories of Saturday night’s debauchery”.

Since then, Brunch has come a long way.

So why is it so popular? Thanks to Popular Culture and television with series like Sex and the City, the concept of Brunch has been associated with a glamorous lifestyle of leisure; to enjoy on the weekends as a means to catch up with friends.

2. Hangover Brunch The famous traditional English Sunday Brunch. The whole shebang is required for this; to be shared across the table in a buffet sort of style. Bacon, sausages, scrambled eggs, hash browns, beans, eggy bread, black pudding and more, nothing is off-limits here.

Not forgetting the plenty of fluids to replenish your body including orange juice and coffee!

3. Boozy Brunch

1. Day-to-day Brunch This is for your meetings, catch up with friends or a quick grab-and-go. Smoothie and Acai bowls are a statement dish here, topped with a variety of fresh fruit, granola, seeds, nuts or peanut butter. More often than not you’ll find a plate of smashed avocado on sourdough bread with a poached egg on top here too.

From curing a hangover to causing a hangover, the Bottomless Brunch Boomers are glorified across social media. Essentially, a Bottomless Brunch is where you pay for your meal and a time slot to enjoy an unlimited amount of prosecco or cocktails for an hour or two. From fluffy American pancakes topped with bacon and drizzled in maple syrup to eggs benedict, the choice is endless, with burgers even making it onto the bottomless brunch menu. Basically, any substantial meal that will help soak up the fizz.

What’s clear is that Brunch represents a culinary pillar of our society and if this hasn’t already persuaded you to book a brunch for this weekend, then schedule a time in the near future to sleep in a while longer, catch up with friends and enjoy some delicious food.
