Stacey, attendee at developmentplus workshop

“Cannot recommend this workshop highly enough! It’s a fun and simple way to learn something useful, which can save you money, plus you know what’s in your medicines this way!”

Leverton & District Gardening Group, herb walk

“Just a quick thank you for the lovely evening in Irene and Richard’s beautiful garden last Wednesday. The feed-back from those who attended has been so positive and your fascinating information sheet has been very well received by all the members, particularly the ones unable to attend. And I still can’t believe it didn’t rain!!”

Adrian, Herb walk attendee

“Thanks so much for the herb walk! I really enjoyed it. There’s always something empowering about reconnecting with plant medicine at its source, and seeing how and where the plants grow. It’s a form of medicine in its own right. I certainly felt like my batteries had been charged again. The plant reference guide and plant ID guide are great additions too, thank you. I love the recipe ideas in there as well.”

Amanda Thorpe, Tea tasting session attendee

“I joined in with a Tea Tasting session with Hannah at Soul Escape. Hannah is a very knowledgeable herbalist that made the experience very interesting. We also went on a small walk where Hannah pointed out some easily found plants that have very useful properties. Hannah delivered her session in a calm and inclusive way. I hope to be able to attend more sessions soon. Highly recommended.”

Barbara Nobis, Herb Walk attendee

“Been on a herb walk with Hannah and enjoyed it tremendously. She has an enormous knowledge about plants and their processing and use. And they are growing all around us, one just has to open one’s eyes. Would highly recommend, surely also for personal advice.”

Jacqueline Hart, Everton Gardening Club

“Hannah came to a meeting of our Gardening Club in Everton and we all really enjoyed hearing about her reasons for developing a passion for herbs. She inspired in us too an interest in herbs and their culinary or medical uses. It was a fascinating and informative talk, and we all went away with ideas for herbal infusions!”

Brian, Chair of National Grid REA Lincoln Club

“Hannah gave our National Grid REA Lincoln club a talk on herbal medicine and wild flowers. Her talk was very interesting on the subject, telling us all about plants that are used to help ease everyday health symptoms. Our members took it all in and were asking relevant questions during and after Hannah’s talk. Hannah certainly knew her stuff and kept the topic interesting throughout. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting a Speaker for their own club meetings.”

Pete and Sue Milsom, Grimsby, Cleethorpes & District Civic Society

“Our group immensely enjoyed a talk by Hannah Sylvester on the commonly found herbs (and some weeds!) in our gardens and their medicinal uses. Hannah is a very friendly person and brilliant speaker and we soon felt at home with her and her subject. She managed to answer all our questions and left us wanting even more.”

Pat Rennie, Barney History Group

“After Hannah’s talk, about Lincolnshire’s medicinal plants, at our local history group yesterday, we all realised what a wealth of healing there could be garnered from our own little plots. Her talk was interesting, informative and, most of all, motivational. Many thanks, Hannah – we all learnt a lot about the plants, and their uses, growing under our noses!”

Sheila Green, Sleaford

“I just wanted to thank you for such an interesting and informative talk on Monday. I don’t think I’ve taken quite as many personal notes at a group talk for ages – and I fully intend to buy some of the plants you recommended; the angelica and marshmallow in particular. (I still can’t bring myself to love dandelions, however hard I try – and I do honestly try!) I particularly enjoyed your personal stories, which always bring subjects to life.”

Daniel Morgan, Lincolnshire Hospitality Conference

“We just wanted to say a huge “thank you” for joining us as a Speaker at the Lincolnshire Hospitality Conference yesterday. I guess you could have been considered our “wild card” and your talk on harnessing Mother Nature in hospitality was perfectly tailored, very informative and exceptionally well delivered.”

Kelda Parker, Mount Street Academy

“Your sessions were wonderful, once again, so many thanks for returning! The children always get so much from the curriculum enrichment opportunities we look to include within their learning as it brings another dimension and context to the topic. I am sure we will invite you back in the future so I will no doubt be in touch next year!”

Chris, Lincoln

“I just wanted to say thank you very much. The physical help, the product you have supplied has I know been keenly instrumental in the great improvement I feel, to the degree that now I take little note of any concerns when going about my daily life. Even the stick, I rarely use now – though do carry it on walks to slash nettles! The support you have given be has been very much appreciated and valued. It really has helped me hugely. So thanks for everything, Hannah. I am very much better, and attribute that, as much as anything, to your help and support. Going forward, I remain comforted that I can always contact you, and come back for …

Maggie, Lincoln

“The first meeting was incredibly valuable, for me it gave me confidence that I was quite self-aware and I felt supported in that. I enjoy the relaxed approach to time and know that if I was in a hurry, I could just say, but have enjoyed the tranquillity of talking and being listened to and then the time of contemplation and intent. Tasting was the highlight, and the tincture I have now, which came from a very positive place and was chosen through tasting and smelling feels the most powerful. The fact that you choose bio-organic sources for your herbs adds to their power for me, the teas are great too and I have enjoyed experimenting at home after talking …

Liz, Devon

“I’ve been going to Hannah for years now and even though I now live hundreds of miles away, I still get tea in the post from Hannah. These teas are made specifically for me, they work wonders for my whole soul and feel a bit more special than generic premixes teas.”

Angela, Wales

“I’ve known Hannah for many years now and she has always been supportive, friendly, professional and just lovely. She’s been supporting me with my complicated health journey for some time and I wouldn’t want anyone else, I totally trust Hannah’s judgement and the herbs she provides, and I know that they are making a huge difference to my health as proven in the regular NHS blood checks that I have for my chronic disease! Thank you Hannah for your support and gift of health and wellbeing, it gives great peace of mind. “

Jenny, Lincoln

“I think that Hannah is an amazing herbalist, she actively listens to everything that you have to say and has a calming presence. She is very detailed when making the medicine and makes sure that you have the correct herbs for your symptoms. At each review, she will ask in-depth questions which help figure out how well the medication is working and will adjust the medication precisely to acquire your needs. I cannot fault the work that she does.”

Sarah, Lincoln

“Incredibly detailed and professional consultation. I have been taking my personalised tincture and tea for a month now, mainly for a long term stubborn pruritic skin problem. I am delighted with the results. Thank you Hannah!”

Ben Skipper, Bounce! Coordinator, General Adult Services, Lincolnshire NHS Partnership Foundation Trust:

“Occasionally you meet a professional who ticks all the boxes, and then excels. Hannah is one of these. Hannah is one of the most engaging, personable, interesting and knowledgeable individuals it has been my pleasure to work with. Her interpersonal skills tied with her hands approach to her wide subject matter are fantastic and her ability to engage and encourage beneficiaries from a wide range of backgrounds is simply a reflection of her passion for her work, her drive and her openness. Never confuse Hannah for a mere Herbalist, she is also a educator, and an excellent one too.”
