CENTRE NEWSLETTER

Twice a year - in March and September - the Centre produces a Newsletter with details of all its comings and goings, notable happenings, forthcoming attractions and general gossip.

It first saw the light of day in 1993 and is, we have to say, no ordinary newsletter. It started out perfectly normally but at some point in its history almost impossible to pinpoint (but the general consensus is that it was around the time the Centre Manager was unwisely allowed almost total control over its content) - it morphed from a perfectly well-behaved little chronicle of Centre happenings into - well - something else entirely.

It now has a small cult following and a slightly dysfunctional personality all of its own.

If you would like to receive future Newsletters, please let us know and we will add your name and address to the mailing list. You may email us, write to us, fax us or telephone us. All you need to tell us is your name, address and - if applicable - email address. Don't forget to tell us the format you would like to receive the Newsletter in - a printed version through the post or an electronic version by email (which will be in plain text).

Alternatively, you can read the Newsletter on-line.

The Newsletter is sent out free of charge, but if you would like to contribute to the cost of its production we would, of course, be very grateful.

"The Long and Winding Road":

After a gestation period of something over 6 months, the Centre's long promised newsletter compilation – “The Long and Winding Road ” has finally seen the light of day.

 

The 34 Newsletters (which over the years developed an idiosyncratic style and a small but vociferous fan base) were produced between 1993 and 2003 and are linked by a narrative written by the Centre Manager, Moira Briggs, who was also responsible (some would say criminally) for most of the newsletters.

 

Read together, the newsletters and the linking narrative tell the extraordinary tale of the ground-breaking Centre for Complementary Care – of the people and events that shaped it and of its survival, against all the odds, into the 21 st Century.

 

Related not from the viewpoint of the therapists, but from that of a long-suffering and frequently irritated paper-pusher battling recalcitrant office equipment, unhelpful officialdom and the vagaries of the English weather, the story takes the reader on a gently humorous and occasionally poignant journey down a less-travelled road.

 

Available only directly from the Centre at a price of £6.25, inclusive of postage and packing.
