Give the gift of kindness as wedding favours with Heal Somerset

If you're looking for a wild gift list idea giving you an environmentally-conscious way of celebrating your nuptials, Heal Somerset can help. Your guests can sponsor, in your names, a three-metre by three-metre square of land being rewilded by the environmental charity, near Bruton.

The idea originally came about when two of Heal's supporters got in touch regarding their own wedding list. Lucy Johnson and Joe Swords wanted to offer their family and friends an option that seemed natural to them – giving money to Heal Rewilding to support land being given back to nature. The Heal team were so thrilled by the idea that they created a special set of wedding gift donation options for the couple.

Every £20 donation given through a wedding list sponsors a Heal 3 x 3 square of land, which will be brought back to life through rewilding, and multiple squares can be supported. After a year, an optional £3 per year upkeep fee can be paid to keep the sponsor's name linked to their square. For £100, people can sponsor a Heal 3 x 3 Lifetime square, which maintains their sponsorship in perpetuity.

Each donation is a positive step toward paying for Heal's foundation rewilding site in Somerset. Find out more at www.healrewidling.org.uk

"That vantage point inevitably shapes how I think about marriage — not cynically, but realistically. It is perhaps unsurprising, then, that one of the most notable trends I have observed in recent years is the growing interest in prenuptial agreements among Gen Z and younger Millennial couples.

Expert says prenups aren't just for the rich and famous

Legal experts at Richard Nelson LLP are urging Brits to rethink who prenups are really for. While often seen as something reserved for high-profile couples, data suggests they remain largely overlooked in everyday relationships. Just 7 percent of divorced Brits had a prenuptial agreement in place before separating, highlighting a significant gap between perception and reality. Regionally, attitudes vary. Manchester has emerged as the UK's 'prenup capital', with 13 percent of divorced couples having one in place, compared to 8 percent in London and 11 percent in Birmingham. Meanwhile, cities including Liverpool and Southampton reported no uptake among those surveyed.

A marriage is an energetic ecosystem.
