Help - Assistance required please 🙏🏼

We are spending the Easter weekend preparing for our first fundraising event for on 18th April and we need to know the best way of finding/creating .gpx files for our route from Halesworth to Beccles and then to Bungay, Harleston, Diss, Wymondham and finishing in Attleborough.

We are on road bikes, so need to avoid off road trails, but also busy roads. Can anyone help us, or recommend the best app please?

Let’s hope the sunshine sticks around as members of the Rosedale Team gear up for an exciting challenge!

We are having a very egg-siting day volunteering at the annual Easter egg hunt with Nelson's Journey. We have a seen so many happy faces, and it’s a really important message for everyone that even when you are grieving, it’s still ok to smile without feeling guilty.

Sometimes it can be hard to find the write words to use in a tribute or eulogy.
Although Rosedale are lucky to work with many ministers, celebrants and humanists who can help guide a family, Hannah WG - Humanist Wedding Naming Celebrant - Manchester Leeds Sheffield, a writer with 14 years experience, can assist if a family would like a little more help.

🍲Recipe of the Month is Tracey’s Pasta Bake🍲

Taken from our Cooking for One book, this comforting recipe is part of a unique collection of dishes and stories written by the bereaved, offering wisdom, insight, love and hope. 💚

“I shared it because there’s no weighing involved and it’s totally flexible as to what you can add. It’s quite easy for someone who is grieving and perhaps isn’t used to cooking.” Tracey
