If you're grappling with ideas to fill the half-te If you're grappling with ideas to fill the half-term holidays, we've got a few to get you started. And don't worry if kids are a future problem – these are all perfect to enjoy with mates too. 

1. Take a trip to the City Wall at Vine Street
This free museum is 2,000 years of beautifully preserved history in the heart of London. With a collection of meticulously unearthed historical artefacts and a unique section of the original City Wall, it brings to life the story of London (and Londinium) in an immersive and educational way.

2. Sing your heart out at @luckyvoicekaraoke
Instead of asking the kids to quiet down, get them to pipe up for two hours of caterwauling under the disco balls at Lucky Voice in Devonshire Square. From Disney bangers to old school anthems, a great time is guaranteed for all. 

3. Make pop quizzes cool at @quiz_room_uk
Book for an hour of high-energy quizzing that's so fun, they won't even realise they're learning too. At this immersive TV quiz experience, there'll be no arguing over the remote; just fingers on buzzers to see who has the most knowledge, observational skills and speed. 

And if you've got any we've missed, share them with fellow parents in the comments 👇 (It takes a village, after all.)

Visit today and tomorrow to get some jaw-dropping photos amongst the garden on eco-friendly heart balloons, enter the raffle, buy a bouquet and grab a treat. Happy Valentines.

We never saw January as a standout month – until R We never saw January as a standout month – until Refresh proved us wrong.

Over the last three weeks we learnt about resilience, discovered the power of herbalism, took serene strolls, and enjoyed daily wellbeing webinars. Thank you to everyone involved. It was a pleasure sharing these events with you, and we hope you enjoyed them as much as we did.

Wellbeing or wellness – what’s the difference? As Wellbeing or wellness – what’s the difference?

As part of our Refresh campaign, we asked @charlottewiseman_, Founder and CEO of Step Inside Group, to break it down...
