From their website: "... started in the 1980’s by a group of local women from Somers Town who had decided that they needed an informal environment in which they could learn more about their health,  as well as,  access a range of holistic treatments for their physical, emotional and mental well-being. ... In 2017 more than 700 local women collectively received 3,000 complementary and alternative therapy sessions, healthy living information and 3,200 counselling sessions."
