Creature Courage is the UK's leading animal phobia expert. We offer powerful life-changing workshops to radically treat animal phobias in just one day! We also offer educational talks and lectures on the neuroscience of fear and phobias with a fascinating animal encounter at the end to demonstrate the concepts. We at Creature Courage know how debilitating and embarrassing these phobias can be. It can be so frustrating when others do not understand that you can't just "get over it" as this is an issue that is deeper than what you can simply rationalize.   You are not alone. You would be surprised about how common these phobias are.  And we are here to support you and achieve a liberating change that you may have never thought possible.  We are passionate about making a positive difference in people's lives! We run fun therapeutic experience workshops to powerfully change your life and break free from common animal phobias such as spiders and insects, reptiles, birds, cats, dogs, rodents, etc. Our workshops are carefully designed using the power of neuroscience to radically change your reaction to a trigger animal to break free of phobias, fears, and anxieties around animals.  Additionally, our workshops will also help you address overall anxiety with our dynamic holistic approach. You will gain the knowledge and tools to start changing bad habits in all anxiety triggers in your life to achieve overall better mental health. You will learn how to conquer fear no matter what you may face! So the benefits go far beyond just the animal phobia.  The workshops are designed to not only be life-changing, healing, and educational but also interesting and exciting! We want to make it a great day out and a memorable experience to remember. We use a combination of education, cognitive behavioral therapy, NLP techniques, art therapy, hypnotherapy, and most importantly immersive therapy to achieve our incredibly high success rate. Most clients only need one session to dramatically change their reactions to a trigger animal!   Creature Courage has been featured in the media regularly including being on Good Morning Britain, Sky News, various ITV programmes, BBC Radio 2, The Daily Mail, and many more. We have worked with Merlin Entertainment & have cured various celebrities of their animal phobias.  Our staff is fully insured with years of experience, Creature Courage is a brand you can trust.  

STAR - Steps To Active Recovery

star - steps to active recovery

There are many organisations across the UK doing great things to help people in addiction. But they’re not always working together. And often, a great initiative runs out of steam and disappears because its organisers are struggling to cope with all the demands and pressures that are being put upon them. This is where STAR comes in. With a personal story of recovery from addiction, and six years of experience in helping to run almost 20 Recovery courses at local churches, STAR founder-director Emma Heath has spotted a growing problem. And she’s become more and more determined to do something about it. > “I see so many great things starting up around the UK. But too often they > disappear because they’re not sustainable. Churches are either not getting the > support and training they need, or they’re not collaborating with other > services and organisations in their local area, or they’re simply overwhelmed > by the need on their doorstep. People can’t work in silos – especially in the > field of addiction and recovery. It’s all too hard.” STAR is about changing the culture that exists around addiction services. Across the UK, we want to have volunteer-led Recovery hubs that are brilliantly run by expertly-trained personnel who are getting all the advice and support they need to keep going. In the future, people affected by addiction will choose to go to a STAR-approved venue because of its reputation for being safe and trustworthy. It’ll be a place where lives are being changed. Every hour. Every day.”

[FLIP TO READ MORE] Hanif has held several posts, including senior management and leadership roles in a local authority, housing association and two grassroots charities, developing and delivering innovative community development programmes that have been praised as examples of best practice. Strategy, innovation and partnership development are the common threads that run throughout his career, and his areas of expertise include community engagement, economic development and health & wellbeing. He strongly believes in the power of enterprise and well-paid employment to lift disadvantaged communities out of poverty, and both of these topics are close to his heart. He is an autodidact with a broad range of interests, including tech, photography, videography, branding, marketing, graphic design, web design, and more. Hanif seeks to encourage organisations to fully utilise these tools to help drive engagement, deliver real social impact, and fully harness the power of one of his true passions: storytelling. Alexandra Porter Alexandra is a visual anthropologist and filmmaker with a degree in Social Sciences and Social Anthropology and a Masters in Visual Anthropology and Documentary Production.

For her degrees, she conducted in-depth qualitative research on stigmatised facets of culture across the globe. As part of her Masters, she moved to Los Angeles to study and film artists living with chronic illnesses in order to understand a patient's expression of their lifeworlds, and how to improve an individual's quality of life. Her film "Pathos: The Art of Life" was officially selected for the Fine Arts Film Festival, Venice, California 2020 and screened at the Burning Man Multiverse 2020. "Trust Your Senses" received an honourable mention at the Experimental Forum 2020. Alexandra currently resides in Barcelona, where she has undergone further training in documentary filmmaking. She has also been involved with local grassroots charities such as Lloc De La Dona (an association supporting migrant women involved in sex work), the Las Kelly's (cleaners fighting for better working conditions in the tourism sector) and Volver a Latir (a rehoming association for foster dogs across Spain). Emran Hoque Emran is a multidisciplined creative specialising in visual identities and creative design. He is trained in art, design, branding, and marketing, and has worked with public, private and non-profit organisations to tell their stories through distinctive, meaningful and emotive design.

His expertise includes making websites and digital media accessible to neurodiverse people, and his personal experience of dyslexia gives him a unique perspective as a digital professional. For over ten years, he led a creative studio in the heart of London’s creative hub, Brick Lane, and, as a freelance branding consultant, has worked internationally with some of the largest creative agencies and their clients. Emran has a strong track record of working with charities, and in 2021 he founded Digiroots CIC, a non-profit that aims to build the capacity of small grassroots charities and bridge the digital divide. He regularly organises and delivers community arts programmes for disadvantaged communities that may not otherwise have the opportunity to explore and express themselves through the creative arts. Suzanne Wolfe Suzanne is an experienced social housing professional who has spent 35 years working with social landlords, developers, local authorities, charities, and others to create and deliver real social value.

Suzanne is a capable advocate, problem solver and negotiator.
