A new health hub and training academy is set to open in Gainsborough offering a Lincolnshire first in terms of accredited courses.
The Heal’m Practice which offers both in-clinic and at-home appointments for podiatry, chiropody, and sports massage, is opening a new practice at the Engine Shed in Marshall’s Yard.
It will offer students an Institute of Training and Occupational Learning accredited Foot Health Practitioner course.
Business owners Emma and Darren Lambert are excited about expanding their business, which will complement their other locations in Saxilby and Wisbech.
Darren said the first time he and his business partner saw the room in Gainsborough, it filled them with excitement as they saw the potential straight away. He said: “We live locally and I was born here in Gainsborough, so we know the area very well. Even as a young boy living in the town Marshall’s (or Track Marshall’s) was the focal point of the community. We visit the shopping centre on a regular basis and when we saw the advert to rent out a room we jumped at the chance to see it.”
The Heal’m Practice is excited to offer professional training in professional foot care in their newly launched academy offering level 3 and 4 Diploma’s in Foot Health. Emma said:“Our plan is to run as a health hub and training academy. Gainsborough and the entire east of the country doesn’t offer our training services. We are predominantly a podiatry company, we cover a huge area, covering the whole of the county to the Cambridge border.
