The venue covering the Birmingham area is in Kings Norton on the historic Green with its Tudor village feel. Kings Norton is 6 miles from Birmingham city centre, a couple of miles from Bournville and Cadbury World and 5 minutes drive from the M42 junction 2, close to the M5 and M40.

The venue covering the Cheshire area is in the countryside between Knutsford and Holmes Chapel, not far from Jodrell Bank. It is close to the M6, junctions 17 and 18 and the M56 motorways.

Both locations are chosen for their accessibility to motorway links, airports, railway stations and bus routes. They cover large catchment areas as both are on the outskirts of major cities. Both venues have light and airy rooms with good facilites and free parking on site or locally.

Birmingham

The Birmingham course is based in a busy family run complementary health centre called The Natural Health Centre on The Green in Kings Norton.

This makes courses in Kings Norton ideal for students from Birmingham, Kings Heath, Moseley, Solihull, Bromsgrove, Wolverhampton, Warwick, Rugby, Walsall, Sutton Coalfield, Tamworth, Coventry, Nuneaton, Kenilworth, Worcester, Stratford-upon-Avon, Redditch, Royal Leamington Spa, Telford, Shrewsbury, Mid Wales, Cannock, Stafford, Stone -  really the whole of the West Midlands and surrounding counties.

Students have even travelled from Bristol to this area as the weekend motorway traffic allows quicker journeys at the weekends. Birmingham airport is only a few miles away and the M42, M40, M5, M6, M50 and M1 are all within easy travelling distance.

When you arrive at junction 2 of the M42 follow the signs for Cadbury World and then Kings Norton. On your left you will see a sign for The Green and The Natural Health Centre is located next to the Church and the Co-Operative supermarket car park just opposite the historic Saint Nicholas Place.

Refreshments including water, snacks and a selection of teas and coffees are provided throughout the day. You can bring a packed lunch or visit the local tea rooms, pub or supermarket. The Green in a lovely place to have your lunch in nice weather.

There are guest houses and hotels in the Bournville area for visitors to Cadbury World if you require accommodation. Kings Norton is on all main bus routes and the nearest railway station is Kings Norton which lies on Cross-City Line from Redditch through Birmingham New Street to Lichfield and is half a mile away.

The Old Fuel Depot is a newly purpose built centre for businesses and meetings with a modern, light and airy conference room and spacious kitchen/dining room with patio area that is ideal for our practical treatments. The site of the centre is steeped in history as a nearby secret network of underground fuel pipes kept the country moving throughout the second world war.

Now decommissioned (no fuel!) it is a country location next to Bidlea dairy. There is a shop nearby for sandwiches but a full kitchen means that you can heat soup or make toast for lunch etc. There is high speed broadband, free parking and a lovely relaxing atmosphere.
