General blog posts
Below is a list of educational material and resources that are currently free. These will help with those who are continuing to home school or would like to to continue with some element of home learning. It’s important to remember that none of us really know the right or wrong thing to do right now and what matters the most is that we are safe and our kids mental health is stable. Everything else can fall into place as and when it needs to.
I will continue to update this page daily with any new websites that come to light.
If you would like to contact me to let me know of any that are missing or could be added, including any that are no longer free. You may contact me here.

I can’t believe i’m writing this and I write it with tears of happiness.
Today, 5th November 2019 I reached another milestone of 17,000 followers on my Facebook Page SavvyMumUK.
That’s 17,000 individual people. wow! I remember when I hit my first 100 then first 1000 and I was extremely overwhelmed at that. Then I reached a huge milestone of 5000 and that took the wind out of my sails so you can only imagine how I am feeling right now.
A huge thank you has to go out to you. My readers. My followers. Especially those who have followed me and supported me from day 1. Day 1 being 14th September 2015 for the SMUK facebook page.

Read moreAs a busy mum of two, I know first hand how difficult it can be to juggle finances and the daily struggle to make ends meet. My mission is to seek out the best money saving and money making techniques and pass them on to you. You might think the odd coupon or discount code is hardly likely to break the bank but you would be surprised – My money has noticeably gone a lot further since I adopted new money-saving habits. Everything I know and learn is available for you to read on this blog. This blog is a great platform for me to share all of this information with you.
I am a 34-year-old mum to Amy-Olivia who is 8 and Jenson who is 14. Being a mum to a teenager brings daily challenges and the need for the latest sports gear, game or piece of technology is ever growing. My 8-year-old is not in this phase yet and so I still enjoy buying her the lovely girly outfits and hair accessories but I am sure the time will come that she too will be asking for the latest trends. We don’t often get much time together as a family. Day trips and family holidays are rare but with the money making techniques I am learning I am hopeful these can be but towards some family treats.
As well as this blog I have a fantastic Facebook Group where you can interact and take part in the many conversations and activities. You can find the group HERE. You can also find me on Twitter, Pinterest, Facebook and Instagram.
