CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

I had a 1:1 nutrition session with the Nutrition Team to discuss an underactive thyroid and allergies. I found the session to be extremely informative and interesting. The team has provided me with invaluable advice and resources for further research, information, and treatment.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

Durham High School is proud to be part of the Nourish to Flourish Programme, offering access to inspirational speakers and educational workshops on mental health and nutrition for students and parents. Collaboration with Thomas Franks has led to ‘pop-up’ tasting sessions for students, improving awareness of healthier food choices. Survey data informs our caterers and PSHCE curriculum. We look forward to further growth and student flourishing through the programme.
