Sharing is caring!

We’ve seen some fabulous weather and some terrible weather this month but you’ve all been out and about all the time as usual. I love the wild flowers on lots of photos tagged #UKexplore this month and I also love seeing so much sun.

We’ve explored quite a bit this month in Liverpool, Northampton and right here on the Wirral too. It’s been nice to spend a little more time at home as much as we love travelling.

When I am exploring the UK I tag all my UK days out photographs #UKexplore on Instagram and if you aren’t following me over there I’d love you to do so! You can also keep an eye on what we’ve been getting up to. 

Just in case you aren’t aware what #UKexplore is, it is our Instagram community that we have invited you all to join in with and share your favourite places across the UK and your outdoor adventures. To join in it doesn’t have to be a photograph one of the 534 National Trust properties (although we do think they are amazing); we want to see your ‘off the beaten track’ spots, too. It could be the most marvellous of meadows, the perfect place for a picnic, the loveliest lake for skimming stones, or rambling routes for running along. Wherever and whenever you’re out exploring, simply take a snap and upload it to Instagram so we can all share in your adventures and explore the UK with you. All we ask is that you use the #UKexplore hashtag so we can find you. You don’t have to be a blogger, anyone can join in and be in with a chance to win a National Trust day pass for your family. So without further ado, who have I chosen this month….

This month’s winner of the Day’s Family Pass to a National Trust property of their choice is The Queen of Adveture with this fabulous shot of South Stack in Anglesey which was posted on her Instagram feed and tagged #UKexplore.

We look forward to seeing all your photographs next month and huge thanks to the National Trust for providing the prize.
