Well Hello There,
Can you believe it's February already, that means it's time for a new challenge.

This month’s challenge is to learn a new skill. This could be something you started but never quite managed to get the hang of, something you’ve always wanted to try or something you’ve been putting off for ages.

There is a wealth of information out there to get you started. You could look for an online course, find videos on Youtube, join a forum or sign up to a group or course running in your local area. It is completely up to you how you do it. This could be something you take up by yourself, with a group of friends, or together as a family.

Pick something and do at least 15 minutes a day for the next month and see how you get on, you never know you might find your new hobby or passion.
