I offer high-quality products and services which celebrate plants and herbal traditions from around the world and across the ages. One of the main aims of the apothecary is to revive the role of the traditional herbalist, skilled in the preparation and dispensing of tried and trusted remedies. Just as we expect our food to be grown with love and care, so should we expect the same from our medicines and those who create them. “Where do your medicines come from?” I stock a range herbal tinctures, syrups and teas, all have been handpicked for their high-quality ingredients and environmentally friendly ethos.

WHAT QUALIFIES ME TO HELP YOU? I spent five years studying herbal medicine and naturopathic practice at the College of Naturopathic Medicine at Regent’s College London. During this time I researched and wrote about a wide range of topics which prepared me well for my service as an herbalist. This included: Phytochemistry (the chemical structure of plants and what effects these substances have on the human body) Ethnobotany – the scientific study of the traditional knowledge and customs of a people concerning plants and their medical, religious, and other uses Wild-crafting and gardening, growing plants from seed and learning to identify plants in the wild Formulation and preparation of botanical medicines. The intricate art of prescribing and preparing herbal medicines for use Iridology, Chinese tongue diagnosis, naturopathic cleansing, and holistic nutrition In addition to my studies, I also completed 500+ hours of clinical practice working in a variety of diverse herbal clinics and dispensaries across the UK. Every year, as part of my practice and commitment to my profession, I undergo additional professional training to ensure I’m always up to speed with any new developments in the herbal world. You can learn more about the standards of proficiency required to become a registered practitioner on the EHPTA (European Herbal & Traditional Medicine Practitioners Association) website.

Real First Aid Ltd

Wales,

There is more than one reason to choose REAL First Aid: Find out how we justify our claim to providing the best possible First Aid and pre-hospital medical training for remote, industrial and hostile environments. 0001 Quality Assurance To begin with our teaching and business practices are measured against stringent national and international standards. It's all very well saying we're different but you need to know that you are engaging with a credible training provider that will provide valid and recognised outcomes. 0010 Stealth Learning At the heart of our business is rock-solid educational theory. Whilst we pride ourselves on our unique approach to training it is not superficial novelty or fashionable gimmicks; our professional understanding and application of student centered learning ensures the most effective and engaging training. Effortlessly. 0011 Scenario Based Training We chose the company name "REAL First Aid" for a reason. The best way to learn is to do it and the best way to do it is as realistically as possible. All of our courses take the theory out of the classroom and provide opportunities for candidates to apply knowledge and skills in realistic, work-related scenarios to develop true understanding. 0100 Casualty Simulation Casualty Simulation takes the concept of Scenario Training a stage further by introducing realistic visual stimulus. This makes treating casualties easier (as you can see what you are treating as well as the outcomes) and can desensitise the candidate; preparing them for the realism of treating actual casualties. All of our courses feature an element of casualty simulation but our more advanced courses include professional quality moulages and casualty prosthetics. 0101 Less PowerPoint, more to the point We love PowerPoint! But only when it used effectively and unfortunately it rarely is. None of our basic courses, including First Aid at Work feature slideshow presentations. Step away from the tedium of watching a trainer read a script and get involved in practical training. 0110 Technology: Applied We avoid an unnecessary reliance on PowerPoint but embrace technology when it can be applied to add value to learning. Here are some examples of how we use technology in outdoor environments to provide the best possible education experiences. 0111 Stay Connected When you leave us, the learning continues. We employ several channels to provide you with regular updates including the latest developments in First aid and pre-hospital care as well as drip-feeding you with short articles. for as long as you want to receive them. Things change and three years is a long time to go between training - regular exposure helps prevent knowledge fade and ensures that while your certificate may be gathering dust, your abilities remain fresh. 1000 Our Clients This all sounds great. But how do you know these ideals mean something in the real world? Here are just some of the organisations who have benefited from a different way of learning. 1001 Testimonials Don't just take our word for it, read what some of our previous candidates think of how we do things.

Like many I found the first few months of motherhood very overwhelming – my world flipped 180 in both an amazing and positive way – which obviously I am so grateful for, but also in a scary and at times, lonely way. In having my son I both lost myself and found myself all at the same time… My aim with Little Love Harts is to give the tool for safe, empowered and calm births and to teach parents that they are enough for their baby, yes read the books, yes seek advice from family, friends and when needed professionals – but always know that you are all your baby needs.

I am committed to promoting the wellbeing of parents and babies through the provision of inclusive, educational and supportive classes and services. I will welcome you with a smile, listen to yours and baby’s needs, hold space for you when you need it and give you the tools to bond, soothe, relax and aid your baby’s development – be this at the Little Love Harts studio or via Zoom.

Desilu Banton desilu banton I was born in Dulwich Hospital, East Dulwich Grove,SE22 3PT, on 11th December 1961. I began my life in a house at 102 Railton Road, Herne Hill,SE24 OET, on the ‘Front Line’ of ‘Brixton’, London. What I remember most of my childhood is drawing, drawing all the time, every opportunity. My father loved music and loved to dance. We would dance together. My mother designed clothes and was a dressmaker and cake baker. My parents had arrived in England in 1954 from Jamaica and lived in the Brixton area. They lived on Concannon Road from around 1955 and moved to Railton Road in 1959 after they had wed at the church at Santley Street, around the corner of Concannon Road. Today I live by my painting and continue in my mothers’ and fathers’ legacy as a creator. I am open to producing works of art by commission. painting Painting is expression, a way of me talking with everybody else about how I feel, like a bluesman would play his blues. The whole thing is about feeling. Painting is blues. I paint those feelings that are from inside my head, from inside my soul. The spiritual part of all this is the heritage, the thing that comes from my ancestors, the ingredients that everybody talks about when they talk about the past, where we all come from, which is DNA, the genes. What I am doing is recording the memory that comes to me from nature, along with the music that came from West Africa and the Atlantic experience, all of it, and what I do then is give it form, give it some skin, textures and colours, the whole thing is like an umbilical cord that has not lost its life force, it is the whole nine yards. Jackie Burton Jackie Burton Born and raised in West Yorkshire, I took a trip to London in 1983 and have remained here since then. I am a black woman, a Christian and a mother. A retired Social Worker, I have a passion for children, young people and their families. Over the last 40 years I have had roles in church including youth leader and Pathfinder club leader as well as teaching in children’s Sabbath school & children’s church. It was my joy, to find the most creative and interesting ways to engage children and young people with so many varied learning styles. Over the last 12 years of my career I was a Team Leader for a local authority Fostering Service; having responsibility for facilitating training, assessing foster carers and placing children from diverse and challenging backgrounds with those carers. Life-long learning is part of who I am and I started becoming more interested in paper crafts when my now, 25 year old son was around 3 years old. We started to make cards for every occasion and stopped buying them from the shops. Paper crafts opened the door to so many other crafting pursuits and my love for crafting has only grown since then, from wedding decoration, decoupage & canvas art to knitting & simple sewing, I have done many and various and still do. Nothing pleases me more than sharing my love for something with others, and creative crafts is certainly one of those very many things. I have done this via children’s craft workshops; transforming spaces for Vacation Bible School (VBS); school holiday clubs; card making workshops for children and adults. If it includes crafting, I will consider it. Currently I am involved in a weekly Craft Café project where we are using hobby crafts to support people in our community who may be lonely, socially isolated or feeling low.

Norman Mine Norman Mine Norman Mine is an Italian-born London based multidisciplinary artist whose practice encompasses visual art, acting and social work.

Mine's practice explores the infinite possibilities of the self, the authenticity and the structures of inclusion and exclusion in which it is constructed. For the past three years Mine has run creative workshops co-working with people of different generations, backgrounds, and abilities; developing a specific approach that unsettles the scenario in which participants perform to stimulate creativity and imagination as an opportunity to navigate within. Mine has obtained a Masters Degree in Fine Art at Goldsmith College in 2018. His work has been shown at Performance Istanbul (2021), disORDER Live Collective (2020), Deptford X (2019), The Koppel Project (2019), Platform1 Gallery (2018), Art Night London (2017).
