We registered on a website called www.opora.uk which has a database to link hosts and Ukrainian refugees.

I wouldn’t do coaching unless my child was particularly weak in one subject or is dyslexic or some other educational difficulty.

The only problem is that you have to measure up yourself and get someone in to fit them if you're not a good DIY'er eg m...
We used Paul Spanswick of Ceramic and Stone. Tel: 07958 534522. REally nice guy and he did a great job. Since seen him on multiple occasions doing tiling in the area. He also laid a new step and did the railings plus repaired the hallway tiles.
