Rye is filled with extraordinary people, dedicated to enriching our lives, making the town prosper and giving visitors something extra to bring them to our cobbled streets. Over and above the energy and drive needed to run successful businesses, organisations, or to hold prominent positions of leadership, there are those who voluntarily take on extra roles.

Prominent in the High Street of Rye is the lovely Ethel Loves Me, a shop full of unique, handmade and wonderful items created and made by local people. The owners, Jason and Jo Dorey, started their venture with their friend Matthew, and opened their first shop in 2017 in a small premises in East Street. They quickly found that position and space were important so looked for a bigger premises in 2018. They found the shop on the High Street, which is now brimming with items.

Nature is beautiful, awe inspiring, and pretty amazing, but lifestyles these days mean many people are not getting to appreciate or access the great outdoors around Rye. Work, phones and busy lives or health all contribute to a lack of time spent in nature which is really sad because it has so much to offer our overall health and wellbeing. How often do you get outside?

I think it’s safe to say taking a walk at Rye Harbour Nature Reserve is popular for many and a firm favourite of mine. Walking is a powerful tool to help with overall health and wellness especially in nature so walking at the reserve is simply perfect, it offers varying distance walks, the most popular being the 3km circular route where you can follow the path and will also find hides, offering the opportunity to watch and listen to the vast array of birds. It can get quite noisy at times.
