Has anyone just upped and left there hometown cut contact with everyone and moved far away?

And can give me advice on where to even get started?
Currently living in Lancashire and want to move to Scotland
I have kids so not as easy as just getting up and leaving if I was just on my own

It sounds like an extreme move to cut all contact and move far away with kids. Is there a reason? Will you have a job, a home and find a good school? Will they want to leave their family and friends?
It will take lots of preparation and support I think.

I don't think it matters how far you go, moving is moving. Schools, jobs, housing still has to be taken into account.
I was the first in my family to move away to a different county. I didn't miss my old life. It's taken a long time to feel settled but now I can't imagine living anywhere else.
Do your research, visit the area you want to live and start making plans.
Not sure if I'm missing something - like you're running away from someone/something specific?

Hi no I'm not running away from anything specific
I have a big family and none of them bother with us I've lived where I'm living for the last 10 years and people have visited a handful of times, just had a really crappy time lately and feeling like a fresh move will help us all
