This is very close to my family, in honour of my aunt who had her later life devastated by PSP (Progressive Supranuclear Palsy).
If you’re near Whitby, or just fancy a glamorous night out this September that helps to raise money for good causes, check out The Rosemary Ball. I’ve been told that Gisborough Hall are holding some rooms for visitors at reduced rates if you want to stay too.

Whitby’s harbour stretches out with a mix of rippling water and colourful boats, framed by rows of historic buildings along the quay. The coastal town exudes seaside charm, with its riverside scenery leading the eye towards the North Sea. A stroll along the harbour offers a classic harbour view, where old inns, fishmongers, and cottages reflect the town’s maritime heritage. Popular with visitors for its #HarbourView #CoastalTown #RiversideScenery #HistoricBuildings #SeasideCharm, Whitby is a gateway to both history and the dramatic Yorkshire coastline.
