About this episode

It’s Back! On the Sofa with British Mums Season 2: Episode 1 – Back to School with Jen and Buff
 
We’re delighted to be back with our first podcast of the academic year where Emma chats to Jen and Buff about summer highs and lows, back to school excitement and advice for our mums who have just moved to our beautiful (but slightly sweaty) desert.
 
If you are new to Dubai then this is worth a listen as Jen, Buff and Emma share their top tips on settling into a new country and we’d love you to join us at our Welcome to Dubai event - https://britishmums.com/dubai/events/welcome-to-dubai-breakfast/.
 
We hope you love this podcast as much as we do, please share your thoughts at podcast@britishmums.com.
