Unfortunately we have had a number of late cancellations due to ill health amongst other things this week for the Love Vision Board event – Focus on your relationships and romantic year ahead workshop.
At this late notice, it is impossible to find further participants to make the course viable this time. As a result, the decision has been taken to cancel the workshop.
