EDITOR’S LETTER:
Good Friday has long been associated with fish, but the British coastline offers far more than that. From working ports to architectural cafés, coastal hotels and cold-water exposure, the experience of being by the sea has become more varied.
This edition also includes our first guest article, from Derek Lewis.
The pieces move between Shoreham, Littlehampton, Deal and the Welsh coast, but the thread is consistent — proximity to the water, and how that shapes what you eat, where you stay and how you spend time.

From The Reset Series™
This week’s edition looked at how liver health is being reframed — from a standalone issue to part of a wider metabolic system.
Recent coverage explores GLP-1 medications and their potential impact on liver fat, alongside the role of ultra-processed foods, fibre trends and hormonal factors in shaping metabolic health.
The Liver Reset builds on this, focusing on practical ways to support liver function through consistency rather than extremes.
