In July we celebrate the Birthday and life of South Africa’s Iconic statesman and leader Nelson Mandela when we observe Mandela International Day. Throughout July, to honour his legacy and his wishes, everyone in South Africa plays a part in uplifting poorer communities and combatting inequity.

This month we celebrate Father’s Day and Youth Day and it could be Mom’s perfect opportunity to plan a family holiday. Possibly you’re still seeking something for the upcoming school holidays but there are school holidays in September/October again too

As the cold winter nights start to bite in the Southern Hemisphere it’s time to set your sights on sunnier climes and there’s no place like Europe to find something for everyone as you head for your mid-year family holidays.
