The Family Unit: Is The ‘Traditional Family’ No More?

This was the question we were posed by LV Insurance. It's not something you often think about but as society changes so does what is seen as traditional.

As you know we welcome any opportunity to represent the LGBT community, and talk about our role - as a lesbian couple - in society so we were so pleased to be offered this opportunity.

It's true that the most common type of family are married people with children BUT does that mean it's the only type of family that counts? LV= doesn't think so and that's where this research started.

We joined 6 other families to share our thoughts on what family means and how that impacts our financial choices. You can find all the stories here: https://www.lv.com/life-insurance/lv-love-life/family-life/family-unit

As well as the stories the article looks at some key stats when it comes to families in the UK.

What makes the stats interesting is that the stats don't change significantly across the UK. Therefore it's a misconception that the more 'traditional' areas outside of London are still holding the belief that there is a 'traditional family'. Times are definitely changing.

We had a great experience at our photo shoot with the professional photographer David who thought Bisbee was quite the poser! We certainly couldn't disagree, especially when she started her dance moves!

This followed our other good news, which you can read about here.

Happy Monday, have a good week!
