Amerleys, a converted horse box turned coffee shop, has been trading from the bottom car park of the historic hillfort since December 2023. Owned and run by local entrepreneur Amerley Saville, the small business has grown into more than just a place to grab a hot drink — it has become a community hub for dog walkers, families, and outdoor enthusiasts.

A lot of us like the longer, warmer spring days. But not all of us. We can still experience Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) in spring.

Seasonal affective disorder affects people differently at different times of year. Just because the days are getting brighter doesn’t mean you’re going to feel brighter. Sometimes it’s the opposite. Remember if you’re impacted by the changing season, you’re not alone 💙
