Is it harder to commit Fraud now?

The increase in cases of Fraud in the UK is always a cause for concern. Some in society will always look to try and separate us from our hard-earned money and they will try increasingly ingenious ways to do it. One of the most common types is money laundering. This is when ill-gotten gains from theft either of property that has been “fenced” for the cash, or directly out of someone’s account, are then put back into a legitimate account to make the money look “clean”. To combat this banks and financial institutions employ AML ID VERIFICATION from the likes of  https://www.w2globaldata.com/an-idiots-guide-to-aml-kyc-id-verification.Continue reading →

Should a School Website Have a Blog?

Having a blog on your school website can help you attract new students, engage existing students and parents, and communicate with the entire community. Moreover, it helps you reach your ideal customer. Numerous organisations leverage blogs to attract visitors, turn them into prospects, and drive business so a school can do this too.

Besides increasing engagement and in particular, community engagement, a school blog can help you boost organic search engine optimization. Moreover, if you regularly update your blog, it will attract more readers. You can also post links to your school blog on social media, which will expand your audience and reach new people.

While there are many reasons to have a blog on your school website, you should choose topics carefully. The blog should be focused and follow a specific strategy. It is advisable to focus on the subject of education. Typically, a school website should feature a blog written by the school head. In this role, he or she is considered to be the leader of the school and the entire education sector. A school blog will be an excellent way to share knowledge and expertise about the school and its programmes with other people in the community.

A school website should also feature a calendar and upcoming events. A school calendar is an essential piece of information for prospective families. Moreover, it is important to make sure that the calendar is accessible by everyone. It is also wise to avoid making the page too flashy – it will not only distract the viewers from the main message, but may also be inaccessible to people with disabilities.

Plans and preparations that went into living in a motorhome with our cat for a month in Devon

Sounds absolutely idyllic doesn’t it, and for the majority of the time it really felt like we were living the dream?  Staying in our motorhome in Devon for the month of September, we needed to plan meticulously and prepare for this time away from home. Luckily the weather remained hot and sunny for approximately 90% of the time and if it did rain it was overnight.  Let’s start at the beginning of the journey and all the preparations that went into planning a month away from home.  As we have already been motor homing for nearly three years, most of the larger essential equipment was neatly stored in the garage and ready to be methodically packed into our 5.5-metre-long Motorhome (named Rosie).  There are certain larger items that are essential and must be taken on a journey like ours, foldable camping equipment, such as chairs, a table, wardrobe, an outdoor kitchen unit, so that most of the cooking can be done externally, a washing line, and a large cat run so that Gizmo (our cat) can roam around outside safely.

Thinking about storing enough food for ourselves and Gizmo was relatively simple, we decided to take everything for our cat (as he’s quite particular to certain brands) and only basic items for ourselves.  Our plan was to do a big food shop from a local supermarket on arrival in Devon. Leaving home at 6:00am we sailed through all the usual busy spots on the motorway and only saw a few early morning lorries, cars and Van Rental Bristol drivers. There were a multitude of small, personal toiletries, chargers, a variety of clothes, clean bedlinen, and towels to pack alongside a cat scratch post, small cat tree, food and water bowls and toys to keep a very active cat happy.

The site we had chosen to stay at for the month of September had a great shower and toilet block, a laundry room with washing machine and tumble dryer, a small reception shop stocked with very basic toiletries and food items and an incredible view of the sea within five minutes of our pitch. Having a local village shop and two pubs also within five mins of the site was a bonus. All in all, a fabulous experience and one that will provide many happy memories for a long time to come.

Picking the right electric meter box

It is important to take the time to consider a number of different factors for choosing a new electric meter box. You will need to know which is the best choice for you, or your business, and one that will provide the best durability for you. The process will involve your particular circumstances as well as a number of other considerations. The key issue here is that the device should be safe and reliable, while also being strong enough to be able to handle its purpose.Continue reading →

Three Ways to Cut the Cost and Stress of Christmas

With Christmas on the way, here are three things that you can do to reduce the costs of it…

Christmas Presents – We have all experienced that last minute mad rush where we splurge on novelty gifts in a panic on Christmas eve! Planning gifts and sticking to a budget not only saves you money, but also stops you getting stressed. Well thought out gifts like this irish mens sweater https://www.shamrockgift.com/aran-sweaters/mens-aran-sweaters/ or homemade items go down better than novelty tat too!

Festive Food – We all look forward to the big Christmas feast, but if you are having to feed a big family it can cost a fortune. Getting other family members to help out by bringing something is a good way to gut down on your expenses, as is planning and preparing well in advance. By getting things that can be stored until Christmas a few months ahead, you won’t have such a shocking food shop in December. You also don’t need to run the risk of things being sold out.

Seasonal Activities – Something that can quickly add up are all of the Christmas activities that come as part and parcel of this time of the year. This can cost a lot before Christmas has even arrived, so before you agree to go to everything going on, or start arranging pricey trips here, there and everywhere, think about the things that you really need to do, as well as alternatives. For example, do you really need to take your kids to all the light shows and father Christmas meetings in the area? You could plan a woodland walk on a frosty day which is not only magical but also will be less busy!
