To open a space to support nutrition, mental and general wellbeing care with a range of free and paid regular activities. Open to all


Why This ? Why Now?

The inspiration for this comes from our founder’s personal journey—one that reflects the often-overlooked reality faced by so many individuals

In the midst of midlife she became aware that nourishing herself would help with Perimenopausal symptoms.The overwhelming amount of different information left her feeling confused, alone, and unsupported. Eventually, after hours of self-study, researching medical journals, reading countless books, and scouring online communities, the pieces began to come together.

That deep dive into the world of wellbeing turned into a passion. A passion to ensure that everyone feel they can get guidance from their local community.

She became a Mindful nutritionist and a Licensed Menopause Champion, trained to provide empathetic, factual, and empowering support to those that want to change their lifestyle habits. Her mission is now clear:  To provide practical tools, and create a space where education, wellness, and community care come together. After gaining all of the knowledge she wanted to make changes and that started with Nutrition and After gaining a diploma in mindful nutrition she has now made it her passion to teach individuals how to get off of the processed and ultra processed food cycle. Claire has now been funded by the national lottery for the next two years. This will pay for 2 monthly events over a period of 2 years. Taking it to her local communities and making sure that everyone can have access to the knowledge of nutrition and how it can help your long term health. This is open to anyone and especially young parents who are learning to nourish their own new families.

This funding is only for 2 years and the long term goal for The Atomic Wellness Company CIC is to open a cafe/hub and to become self sufficient. This is where I am asking for your help.

This café will be the physical embodiment of that mission.

What the Wellbeing Space Will Offer

Who We’re Supporting

Although the space will be a welcoming space for all members of the community, our core focus is on supporting women—especially those navigating the challenges of menopause.

This includes:

  • Women and Men covering topics such as Perimenopause, Menopause, Andropause and Post menopause. Men who would like to learn more about nutrition for themselves

  • Partners and families looking to better understand and support loved ones

  • Individuals who have undergone medical or surgical menopause

  • People from underserved backgrounds who lack access to quality health and wellness support

  • Local residents dealing with mental health challenges, loneliness, or social isolation

We believe that everyone deserves access to good food, reliable information, and compassionate support—regardless of their background or circumstances.

Why Your Support Matters

We are seeking to raise funds through this crowdfunding campaign to help cover the initial start-up costs, which include:

  • Securing and renovating a physical location

  • Purchasing equipment (kitchen appliances, yoga mats, furniture, etc.)

  • Hiring skilled staff and facilitators

  • Offering free and subsidised sessions to those in need

  • Providing access to licensed wellbeing and nutritional professionals

  • Marketing and outreach to reach those who need us most

Every pound donated will go directly towards building and launching this life-changing initiative.

A Holistic Vision for Community Health

Our vision goes far beyond just coffee and conversation. We are building a long-term hub for holistic health, where community members can come to:

  • Reconnect with their bodies

  • Build resilience in times of change

  • Learn how to nourish themselves

  • Find strength through education and peer support

  • Develop tools to improve both personal and professional wellbeing

As a CIC, any profit generated  will be reinvested directly into our services, allowing us to expand our reach, provide more free workshops, and even establish annual Menopause Retreats for those who may never otherwise access this kind of support.

Real Change Starts at Community Level

When people are empowered with knowledge and given the tools to care for themselves—mentally, physically, and emotionally—they can thrive. And when women thrive, families thrive. Communities thrive.

We know that menopause has long been a taboo subject, shrouded in silence and misinformation. But we also know that things can change—with education, empathy, and shared experiences.

By funding this space, you are helping to build a future where people are supported, seen, and celebrated during one of the most transformational stages of their lives.
