Kate
Wellness manager
Hi I'm Kate, I am a registered nurse working in the NHS and in this role I am also a wellbeing advocate, mental health advocate and menopause advocate. Alongside this I also practice in some complimentary therapies, which I love.
A big passion of mine is my sprinter van which my partner and I (along with family members) converted into a camper van, we love it, it gives a level of freedom we adore, whether it be just the 2 of us or the whole brood.
What’s more I love a festival, both big or small, immersing yourselves in the vibe of the gathering is what it is all about.
