november-december-2021-newsletter LFBB Newsletter November & December 2021  
       
 

Good morning, Good afternoon, Good evening to all our readers and welcome to this combined November/December Newsletter. 

As we approached Christmas last year we all talked about how challenging the year had been and how much we were looking forward to 2021.   For a little time things did seem to return to normal or a ‘new normal’; but anyone would be forgiven for feeling at least a little ‘déjà vu’ as we approach Christmas 2021!  We all hope that everyone can keep themselves safe and look after each other.  If you’re not in a great place or know someone who might be struggling then check out the CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably) website at thecalmzone.net

We’ll be closing the office for a well earned break at close of business on Christmas Eve but those of us who are not working from home will be back in the office on Monday 4th January 2022 and we will all be raring to go and ready to help you.

In the meantime there are some interesting articles below and, as always, if any of it sparks a thought or gives you cause for concern then please just drop us an e mail or give us a call on 0114 272 9721.

Everyone at LFBB wishes you all a very Happy Christmas and a peaceful 2022.
