Wellness With A Conscience

Feeling incredibly grateful to have been invited to be part of such a special evening.

To be in a room with 50 truly inspirational women was both humbling and uplifting. Listening to their stories, their resilience, courage, kindness and life experiences left me with so much admiration. Every single woman had a story worth telling, and I felt privileged to be among them.

It was also so lovely to catch up with so many familiar faces from the hospice. I had the pleasure of sitting with Baillie and sharing a few laughs with , Carla Cavanias well as seeing all the wonderful café staff again. It really made the evening even more special.

What made the evening even more meaningful was that, at Hillary’s request, there were no presents or gifts just donations to the Ladies Night for Prince and Princess Wales.

What an incredibly thoughtful gesture. It says so much about the kind of person she is.

Harris , thank you for opening your beautiful, warm and welcoming home to us all. It reflected your own kindness so perfectly. Having recently retired from the hospice café, you continue to make such a difference to those around you. You were a wonderful host, and the whole evening was filled with warmth, laughter and generosity.

I came away feeling inspired, grateful and reminded of the strength that exists when women support one another. Thank you again, Hillary, for such a memorable evening. I feel very lucky to have been included. ❤️

What a truly special evening. 💖

It was such an honour to be invited by Hillary to her home, where she brought together 50 incredible women she has met over the years. A room full of inspiring, interesting, warm and accomplished ladies, many meeting for the very first time.

The atmosphere was so welcoming, with wonderful food, flowing conversation, plenty of laughter and a beautiful selection of delicious desserts that looked every bit as good as they tasted! 🍰🧁 They were the perfect finishing touch to a memorable evening.

Even more special was that everyone donated to the hospice instead of bringing anything else. Such a thoughtful way to bring people together while supporting such an important cause.

Thank you, Hillary, for your kindness, generosity and for creating such a wonderful evening. It was a privilege to be included, and I left feeling inspired by the amazing women I had the pleasure of meeting. Here’s to friendship, community and women supporting women. 💖

Today, like every day, I had the pleasure of seeing Kirsty at the Prince & Princess of Wales Hospice.
Today she handed me one of Azeem’s paintings and asked if I could take it home. It was such a special moment.

Azeem has muscular dystrophy, but that has never defined him. He creates his artwork using his body, proving that creativity has no limits.

Through his creativity, Azeem has also built Equal Clothing a brand inspired by his belief in Mind Over Ability.

It’s about changing the way we see disability. Ability isn’t about what people see on the outside; it’s a mindset. When we focus on possibilities instead of limitations, amazing things can happen.

Thank you, Kirsty, for always supporting Azeem and believing in his journey. Small acts of kindness like this mean so much to our family. ❤️🎨

What a lovely afternoon today at The Prince & Princess of Wales Hospice Volunteer Afternoon Tea. ☕🍰💙

It was wonderful to spend time with fellow volunteers, enjoy some delicious cakes and treats, and celebrate the incredible contribution volunteers make to the hospice community.

I was truly touched and honoured to receive a 7-Year Volunteer Service Award in recognition of my volunteering journey. Volunteering has been such a rewarding experience, and I am grateful to have been able to support an organisation that does such amazing work for patients and families across Glasgow.

A special mention to my fellow volunteer therapist and friend, Sheena, who I have had the pleasure of getting to know over the years. It’s people like Sheena and all the other dedicated volunteers who make volunteering such a positive and meaningful experience.

Thank you to everyone at the hospice for organising such a lovely event and for making all the volunteers feel so appreciated. Receiving this award means a great deal to me, and I look forward to continuing to support this wonderful charity.

💙 Here’s to many more years of volunteering, friendship, and making a difference.gordon

A gentle thought this Father’s Day for those missing their dad, grieving a child, or carrying the pain of being unable to become a father. You’re not forgotten today. ❤️

A wonderful day today at Wellness With a Conscience supporting PAMIS as they celebrated the birthdays of three incredible young adults. 🎉🎂🎈

I had the pleasure of providing therapies for the carers, giving them some time to relax, unwind, and focus on their own wellbeing while enjoying the celebrations.

A very happy birthday to all three young adults celebrating today! Wishing you all a fantastic year ahead filled with happiness, laughter, and special memories. 💙

Thank you to PAMIS for having me as part of such a meaningful and joyful day. It was a privilege to support the carers and share in the birthday celebrations.

Carers Week 2026: Building Carer Friendly Communities 💜 Tomorrow marks the start of Carers Week 2026, a time to recognise and celebrate the millions of unpaid carers who quietly support loved ones every day. As a carer myself, I know that caring can be rewarding, but it can also be exhausting, isolating, and emotionally demanding. Too often, carers put everyone else’s needs first and their own wellbeing last. This year’s theme, Building Carer Friendly Communities, really resonates with me. A truly carer friendly community is one where carers are seen, heard, understood, and supported—not just during Carers Week, but every day of the year. Behind every caring role is a person with their own hopes, challenges, health needs, and dreams. Carers deserve opportunities to rest, connect with others, access support, and live fulfilling lives beyond their caring responsibilities. That’s why I’m proud to support the work of Lanarkshire Carers, who continue to create spaces where carers can find understanding, friendship, practical help, and a sense of belonging. Their Carers Week programme offers a wonderful opportunity to take a break, meet other carers, learn something new, and enjoy some well-deserved time for yourself. For me, wellness with a conscience means recognising that self-care isn’t selfish especially for carers. Looking after ourselves helps us continue looking after those we love. To every unpaid carer reading this: thank you. Your contribution matters ❤️ You matter❤️ Let’s continue working towards communities where no carer feels invisible, unsupported, or alone 💝 #CarersWeek2026 #BuildingCarerFriendlyCommunities #UnpaidCarers #WellnessWithAConscience #CarerSupport #LanarkshireCarers #CommunityMatters #CarersMatter #SelfCareForCarers #Scotland

Today I visited the beautiful Malcolm Family Forest Bathing Garden at The Prince & Princess of Wales Hospice.

Reading the plaque, I learned that this award-winning garden, which won Best in Show at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2024, was gifted by Muscular Dystrophy UK.

As a parent of a son living with muscular dystrophy, that made it especially meaningful for me. It was moving to see a place of such peace and beauty created through a charity that supports families like ours.

I was also fortunate to share the visit with two of my friends and clients, and it was lovely to experience the garden together, taking time to appreciate its beauty, tranquillity and the story behind it.

The garden is a wonderful legacy—offering comfort, reflection and a connection with nature for patients, families and visitors at the hospice. A reminder that even in the most difficult times, kindness and community can create something truly special.

Thank you to everyone involved in bringing this remarkable garden to Glasgow💝
