Jade is the owner of Blossom Therapies, a holistic practice offering several healing modalities: Counselling, Hypnotherapy, Reiki / Intuitive energy healing, and Light Language (like sound healing but with her voice and hands as the instrument, the multi-dimensional channelled sounds going directly where needed in your body and soul). Everything offered was discovered in her personal journey of growth and transformation, and is shared with others in order to help them on their journey. Jade has also worked in the NHS for over 10 years, currently part-time as a staff counsellor, using her knowledge and experience to combine the best from both of these worlds - clinical and spiritual - to deliver the optimum outcome for each client. She offers tailored packages of care for individuals and also runs regular wellbeing workshops for groups using a mixture of education, self-reflection through journaling and reiki infused hypnotherapy and guided meditations. Her goal is to help people blossom into their happier healthier selves, to feel empowered, recognising the lessons in their life and turn them into blessings. To consciously connect to their inner light and resources, which then gifts the world around us as it shines brighter. Part of her overall mission is to help the world raise its vibration, to be full of love, unity and peace. A world where you can be more calm, more confident in yourself and more consciously connected to your loved ones and the Universe.

Shipley

Keda spent almost all of her teaching career at one school - Sandal Road Primary School in Baildon, UK. She also almost exclusively taught just one age group, 6-7 year-olds; the age that most children pick up their reading skills. This was to become Keda’s great passion - the teaching of reading. Initially, she was baffled as to why a significant proportion of the children in her classes struggled to pick up basic reading skills. To Keda, they were just as bright as the other children but - for them - reading remained a mysteriously difficult skill. Keda always had a keen and inquisitive mind and this question of why some children had difficulties in learning to read nagged at her. She thought that she had somehow failed these students, so she made an offer to their parents. She asked their permission to teach their children at her home - without charge - at the end of the school day. As a result of this offer, Keda’s house was soon overflowing with struggling readers. Keda even designed an extension to her house to include a custom-built classroom and persuaded her doting husband Albert to build it. For the next 30 years, Keda’s house - literally, just a stone’s throw away from the school where she worked - was full of children. Between 4-5pm every school day she looked for ways to improve their reading skills. Keda's All-Consuming Passion At the time Keda began her research into children’s reading problems, few people had even heard of the term ‘dyslexia’. Keda became fascinated by the condition and her private research soon became an all-consuming obsession. She divided the children into two groups. A control group where conventional methods were used, and her ‘guinea pigs’, where Keda tried anything and everything to see what would work. This painstaking process of trial and error became the genesis of what later came to be known as Toe By Toe. Keda had no idea what was happening in the psychology departments of universities. She simply looked at the reading process and pared it down to the bare essentials necessary to crack the code of this ‘reading thing’. This is also why Toe By Toe is so refreshingly free of jargon and psychological gobbledygook. It certainly wasn’t a ‘quick fix’ process. Only after decades of this meticulous approach did Toe By Toe eventually become the fully functioning system we have now. Keda named the system ‘Toe By Toe’ after a grateful parent commented that she could see how it worked: “Progress by tiny steps – almost one toe at a time…”

Carers Count is a not for profit organisation that supports unpaid carers within Kirklees. We are managed by and operate under the Cloverleaf Advocacy umbrella and work closely with a wide range of professional health and care services, Kirklees Council, charities and community groups to provide support for unpaid carers. Carers Count works with carers who are aged 18 and over and give their time to someone with a physical disability, long-term illness, an older person, a child with additional needs, a learning disability and/or a mental health issue (including dementia). We are also able to provide assistance to someone even after they cease caring for whatever reason. Our dedicated team is on hand to offer advice, information, advocacy, support groups and activities for unpaid carers across Kirklees. We are experts in our fields and cover everything related to an unpaid carers role from benefits advice, raising awareness for carers, meditation sessions and wellbeing support, to understanding your rights as a carer. Everyone in the Carers Count team is hugely committed to supporting carers in whichever ways we can and it's our mission to raise awareness of carer issues - working in partnership with carers and on their behalf when they feel their voice is not being heard. Thank you for the support I have taken from my involvement with Carers Count and the courses I have taken with you over the years. What you do is so needed by carers and I never felt totally alone in all these years.
