Make an appointment to feel your best

We balance multiple demands every day to try to be the best partner, friend, parent, grandparent, carer, colleague that we can be. It’s often only too easy to forget to prioritise your own wellbeing once in awhile.

We can only be the best version of ourselves, if we make time and plan in some self-care. Book time in your diary and use our roundup of the best London hairdressers, barbers, gyms and spaces on hand to help you feel your best.

Reserve a table and date in your diary

Love trying new cuisines? Treat yourself to a table for one or book a catch up in one of St James’s restaurants and bars – remember, self-care isn’t always a solo activity; reach out for support from friends and family when you need it.

We’ve also created a guide to walking to the West End and put our spin on cycling in London to help you explore (or reexplore!) the capital.
