Welcome to our new community. Feel free to explore our web pages and links. We are dedicated to learning how to look after ourselves and our families in ways that make sense and do not cost the earth.

We are especially interested in ways of being healthy that work at home, that are simple, safe yet effective, and that may reduce the need for prescription medicines and other more serious interventions. We want to find the most useful examples of older traditional approaches to self care from around the world. We are keen to support all aspects of wellbeing, at social, emotional, mental, spiritual as well as physical levels. Preventing disease, treating symptoms and managing chronic illness should engage and make sense to all involved, patients, families and health professionals. 

We offer information, guidance and learning opportunities. These will be the best we can find. This is a non-profit service, free of commercial influence, and we choose only from resources that put the public interest first and independently assure quality. We have built our forum on trust and will ensure that this is maintained.
