Hello, everyone!
First off, I must admit—it’s been a little while since we last posted. Apologies for the radio silence! But I’m back today with an update on what’s been happening here at Chunks and what exciting things we have planned for the future.
As you might have noticed, we’ve been expanding our range of products recently. While the core of what we do is still focused on sports and home goods, we’ve ventured into some new areas. A lot of this has come from my personal interests and a few unexpected opportunities that have come our way over the past few months.
My New Passion: Parkrun (And Wesley's, Too!)
One of the biggest changes in my life has been my newfound obsession with parkrun. If you’d asked me a year ago, Saturday mornings usually meant sleeping in, followed by watching Norwich City—let’s be honest, usually struggling to get a win. But now? I’m up at the crack of dawn, dragging Wesley, my trusty dog, out the door to join in a parkrun. And let me tell you, we both love it! Sure, we come back a little muddier than we’d like, but we’re always a lot happier.
For those who are familiar with parkrun, you’ll know that participants often celebrate milestones—whether it’s a certain number of runs completed or just being part of the community. Since Wesley has been enjoying it so much, I wanted to celebrate our milestones together. That’s when I came up with the idea of creating bandanas for him and his best dog mate, Jasper. The designs turned out so well that we decided to make them available for anyone to purchase. They’ve been a hit so far, so keep an eye out for more bandana designs in the future!
A New Artistic Collaboration: Celebrating Norfolk
Another exciting development is our collaboration with local artist Brenda Mace. Brenda is an incredibly talented artist who has created hundreds of pieces, many of which feature scenes, wildlife, and landscapes from our beloved Norfolk. We absolutely love celebrating the beauty of Norfolk, and this partnership allows us to do just that.
Together, we’ve created a collection of coasters featuring Brenda’s vibrant artwork. The designs highlight iconic Norfolk landmarks, native birds, and local flowers—each one brimming with color and character. We’re excited to continue expanding these collections and explore even more ways to bring the beauty of Norfolk into your home.
What’s Next at Chunks
As you can probably tell, things have been busy around here, juggling new projects, new products, and, of course, the usual ups and downs of daily life. Looking ahead, we’ve got plenty of exciting things in the works—new products, ideas to improve our existing offerings, and more collaborations on the horizon. We’re truly excited for what’s to come and hope you’ll be as thrilled as we are.

P.S. Yes, Wesley is named after the Norwich City legend Wesley Hoolahan. If you hadn’t guessed already, I might be just a little obsessed!
