There are many reasons why today might feel hard, our thoughts are with all who are spending today with someone special missing.

We’ve had a few people comment recently that they didn't realise we did short introduction to weaving classes.

So here’s a little reminder from us: we run gentle introductions to weaving, longer courses, study groups, and specialist workshops with visiting tutors — in person and sometimes online.

If weaving has been on your “one day I’ll try that” list, consider this your sign - we've got 2 spaces left on the 21st March!

Today has been a particularly heavy day. Baroness Amos has shared her interim report from the national investigation into maternity and neonatal services. There have been many brave parents sharing their stories and thoughts in the news today, both locally and nationally. We understand that these reports are difficult to watch/read, and that the report itself contains worrying themes and acknowledgements - without yet making any recommendations.

We are here if you need to reach out, or chat to someone over the coming days and weeks ahead.

One thing that has stood out in the report, is that the voices of bereaved parents have not been hidden away. Their experiences and direct quotes help shape this important report. Hard hitting perhaps, but bring energy to the themes and concerns raised.

The investigation are still gathering evidence. If you would like to share your experiences about your losses, about the care leading up to them, or the bereavement care following them, or about the care you received during pregnancies before or after your losses, you can do so online by filling in a questionnaire.

If you'd like more information about the family evidence panel, I have an information pack i can share with you, so please message the page.

We know that sharing your experiences is tough - but they have the potential to change the care families receive in the future.

I've just received this wonderful review and feedback from one of my lovely clients this week - these are his own words and nothing says it better than hearing from someone who has personally benefitted from my therapies.

"Have visited Cathy on numerous occasions purely for relaxation and she always mentioned if I had a particular issue which I denied as I had no symptoms whatsoever.
However recently had this particular issue and after two weeks of discomfort I arranged an appointment, explained to Cathy my symptoms and she concentrated particularly on this region , by the end of the treatment and now the following day the improvement is insurmountable.
Was perhaps sceptical at first however I have certainly changed my views of the health benefits of reflexology and Cathy is extremely knowledgeable and very easy to communicate with and look forward to my next visit ."

All my reviews are shared on Google Reviews so you can read more there if you search for 'Cathy Chiplen Compassionate Therapies' and select 'Reviews'.
