Colouring in

Well, life has certainly taken a different course for us all over the past few weeks. It has been incredibly humbling to see such bravery amongst the NHS, key workers and our own George Yard team.  We’ve been thinking about the little ways we can help show our gratitude for all those who have been doing their bit to keep this country safe.

We’ve also been thinking about all the children who are stuck at home in lockdown, unable to see their friends…and of course all the parents who are having to juggle childcare, home-schooling and work, whilst keeping their sanity at the same time!!…

That’s why, we’ve put together these fun little colouring activities for everyone to download and say THANK YOU … not only will they keep both grown-ups and little ones out of mischief for a while, but you can display them in your window or on your fridge and hopefully brighten up someone’s day.

What a fantastic, colourful way to thank all those people working so hard to look after us all! Download all four illustrations and start colouring today!
