Dear London Mums
What an exciting start of the year! A big group of London Mums met on the 9th floor of City Hall for an exclusive reception with the Mayor of London, lots of laughs, photo bombing and photo shooting with the spectacular London by night view with our photographer Michael from Memorygate. Check our our photos on our Facebook page. A night to remember!
More exciting than that is the announcement that our annual conference in collaboration with Work Your Way and the support of the Mayor of London will be a FREE all-day event held at City Hall (same spectacular view!) on International Women’s Day on 8th March 2013. The title is “NURTURING FEMALE ENTREPRENEURSHIP THROUGH THE POWER OF COLLABORATION” and the programme can be found on our dedicated page. We only have 200 seats available. If you are keen to attend, please make sure you to pre-register by sending your full name and business name (if applicable) by email to info@londonmumsmagazine.com as soon as possible.
This event is aimed at female entrepreneurs and ‘mumpreneurs’, mums keen to continue working flexibly around their families, young women and young entrepreneurs. This platform wishes to help them kick-start their new business or to offer practical advice and help them take their business to the next level as well as to provide collaboration and network opportunities.
Valentine Day is around the corner and we have prepared a few features to inspire you to transform it into a special day.
First of all we have put together a unique Valentine’s Gift Guide 2013 with carefully selected gift ideas for Him and for Her.
And most importantly we have prepared suggestions for a Valentine Menu with recipes for an Aphrodisiac feast!.
After that half term awaits us for another school/nursery holiday time filled with intense activities where mums turn into entertainers and you need a holiday at the end of it 🙂
Do NOT despair and search our improved events’ CALENDAR for family events, ATTRACTIONS and specific half term activities across London under the ‘ACTIVITIES’ section either under your London area or day of the week. We update these pages on a regular basis.
