Here’s the deal – our priority is people / organisations we trust and that we share an ethos with. We’re lucky, we’re not in any pressure to work any way or deliver our service under any restrictions, we have lots of overly qualified people supporting us in the background (keeping us focussed and compliant) and our commitment to you is that we will not compromise on our delivery and who we work with.
We're excited to announce our first ever athlete sponsorship. Briony and Thomas Duerden are everything we've been looking for; conscientious about maintaining health while achieving incredible outcomes in the powerlifting world: Briony is a national champion, 4th in the WRPF pros and has 3 British records in 2 federations - Thomas is IPL British Champion with 4 IPL British records.
Both great champions of the work we seek to undertake by supporting longevity in strength athletes and both experienced and qualified coaches - we look forward to collaborating and learning from and with them.
Knowledge is Strength
We’re excited to announce a new partnership with two of our (very) long term friends:
Co-locating at a new premises with Create Strength Group (CSG) which also happens to be at the base of the amazing local mental health charity The Cellar Trust (Farfield, The Annex, Shipley). Our relationship with CSG spans over 10 years, since their inception, and we couldn’t be happier to be based with organisations whose ethos we align with.
Our new lab and interpretation partner E-Val Blood Analysis, health and fitness industry experts for over 15 years and have been providing blood evaluation for over 6 years [check out the new corporate offer from their sister company WellAhead Health - bringing health screening to the workplace]. Our reports are now initially written by a colleague with a Paramedic Science background (20 years of experience with additional advanced practice modules). This, with additional support and oversight from GMC registered GP and a Dr in Nutrition provides our clinical governance structure.
And our existing partners we value:
Kratos Medical have been amazing to work with.. we’ve only moved partners due to securing some new contracts (which we’ll announce soon) and the need to have an ability to offer anonymous screening to vulnerable populations. I can’t recommend them enough, in fact, I use them for my personal healthcare and will continue to do so – hopefully the worlds will align again where we can partner with them again in the future on projects.
The Bamboo Rooms in Otley and its sister shop in Koh Samui are tattoo studios known for traditional bamboo tattooing technique, which has roots in Thai Buddhist temples. The Bamboo Rooms are owned by Ajarn Keng and his wife Lauren. Keng is recognized as one of the best bamboo tattoo artists in the world. He was born in Nakhon Sawan, Thailand, and his talent was recognised by a high-ranking monk at a young age.
It’s been amazing to deliver our clinic in such beautifully artistic surroundings and that friends of well over 20 years have been so supportive to our little company - we will still deliver from here every now and then for anyone closer to that location.
New Vision Bradford. We sometimes speak to people that are struggling and or want advice around alcohol and substances. Sometimes life throws things at us, sometimes things just creep up on us, and sometimes we spot things in results that lead to conversations. Led by national charity Waythrough but with local partners Bridge, Create Strength and Project 6 - New Vision Bradford is where we direct people that may need support. It's a great service with some amazing staff and they cover Bradford, Keighley, Bingley, Ilkley, Shipley and everywhere in the district. If you or someone you knows needs support or information please contact them.
