Spring is in the air!

There’s some optimistic cheer in the air at Melt – the days are getting noticeably lighter and we’ve spotted one or two lambs in the fields surrounding the workshop – a sure sign that winter is on the wane and spring is just around the corner… hurrah!

Thankfully we escaped much of the snow that hit the country in early February, much to the relief of everyone here; two years of heavy snow and being located down a windy road that the plough and gritter forgot about turned us right off the stuff!

So Valentines came and went (hope you got lots of lovely stuff!) and now Mothers’ Day is nearly upon us (18th March) and we’ve got a fab offer (exclusive to our loyal email subscribers) for all those special Mum’s out there.

With every Tall and Fat candle purchased you’ll receive a free signed copy of the marvellous Catching Babies by Ribble Valley resident and friend of Melt, Sheena Byrom OBE.

This inspirational story of life as a midwife, took the book world by storm late last year and reached the Sunday Times best-sellers’ list. It is a moving account of an extraordinary career and reveals the unique experiences that filled Sheena’s days as she looked after overwhelmed new parents and helped bring their precious babies into the world.

Before retiring in 2010, Sheena had been at the forefront of midwifery practices in East Lancashire for 35 years, witnessing the complete and radical change in maternity care over the years and seen her become a passionate advocate for women.

It’s a brilliant read and we know that Mums out there will be able to identify with many of the stories that Sheena recounts, some of which will bring a tear to the eye and others that will have them laughing out loud!

The offer is subject to availability and ends on 15th March – if you aren’t a mail subscriber then sign up quickly in our contact us section to receive an email about how to get this offer and future exclusive offers!

Until next time
