What’s on, where and when and for whom?

  • Below are the events for the Chichester and Surrounding Area local support group of the FHT (Federation of Holistic Therapists). All events and workshops are open to everyone; FHT members, members of other therapy associations and the general public. Many of the talks lead onto full day or weekend workshops and courses for those wishing to take certain subjects a little further.
  • The entrance fee for each of the talks is still just a very reasonable £5 for FHT members (£3 for therapy students) and £7 for non-members. The meetings start at 7:00 (feel free to arrive from 6:45pm) and they finish by 9:00.
  • Light refreshments will be available.
  • Plenty of car parking space in the roads around the hall.
  • We usually meet on the first Wednesday of every other month (February, April, June, August, October, December). Please check dates below.
