Sue Leach, founder of The Hub, homeopath
I came to homeopathy 21 years ago when my daughter was nine months old and I had mastitis. An NCT friend suggested homeopathic remedies and, well, I’ve never looked back – boob went from concrete solid, red hot raw and so painful I didn’t want my poor child near it to back in action within a day.

Melissa Bradshaw-Weaver, LSHC RSHom, is a professional classical homeopath registered with the Society of Homeopaths. Melissa sought homeopathy to support her own recovery from ill health due to candida overgrowth in 2012 and was so impressed (and intrigued!) that she took her then six-year-old daughter for homeopathic treatment for her persistent ear pain. After overnight success she never looked back…
Passionate about health and wellbeing, Ally qualified as a therapeutic massage therapist in London 30 years ago and offers pregnancy massage and Indian Head Massage. After some health issues of her own which traditional medicine had not been able to improve, she turned to reflexology. After four sessions, her symptoms completely disappeared and she retrained, also in London, with the Association of Reflexologists.

Clair James, skin and mother & baby support
Clair believes the skin is of vital importance to ours and our children's health, not simply as a barrier between our inner and outer worlds, but also acting as both a window through which to view our health and a hugely absorbent and therefore vulnerable organ. So it was a natural choice to advise and support mums and babies with Weleda's beautiful, well-proven skincare range.
Angela Keen, yoga therapy
Having worked in the spa and wellness industry for more than 25 years as a spa therapist, spa director, brand trainer and business development manager both in the UK and overseas, the connection between mind and body and integrated personalised wellness has been a focus throughout Angela's career.

Extensive experience in a range of luxury beauty treatments, bringing natural manicures and pedicures to The Hub. My aim is to insert a little calm and a space for you to relax and unwind whilst I assist in revealing your natural beauty by providing treatments to boost confidence and bring out that inner radiant glow that we all have within.
Sue Leach, homeopathy & food intolerance testing
I came to homeopathy 21 years ago when my daughter was nine months old and I had mastitis. An NCT friend suggested homeopathic remedies and, well, I’ve never looked back – boob went from concrete solid, red hot raw and so painful I didn’t want my poor child near it to back in action within a day.
Holistic nutrition works on the principle of using food as medicine. What we put into our bodies has an impact on how our bodies perform. Your body is amazing and has an incredible ability to heal but if you don’t give it all the nutrients it needs to do this and nourish and nurture its environment then it cannot do what it naturally is able to do.
Neena Saith, Pranic healing
Pranic Healing is a non-touch form of energy healing which can help with many conditions of the body and mind. Your energy system is the blue print to the physical body. As we go through life, the energy system can become congested with unhelpful energy arising from certain patterns, lifestyles or psychological changes resulting in certain ailments or conditions arising.
Classes
Hannah Bimpson, yoga
Hannah Bimpson came to teaching yoga from a background as a professional dancer.
‘Yoga has always been something that goes hand in hand with dance but my real love for it started around four years ago when I began taking regular classes. I soon knew it was something I wanted to teach and began working towards my teacher training. I decided that for me it was important to go to the root and study in India...
There is a powerful healing force in our understanding of our senses, environment and inner self. I began with a background in textile design, graduating from Central Saint Martins (1st BA Hons), which allowed me to expand upon my natural fascination with colour, texture and materials. Then, having completed my 200-hour yoga teacher training this year, I am now holding hatha yoga classes and one-to-one yoga sessions to work on a more personal, customisable yoga practice for the individual.
