Hello
Need friendly expert nutrition advice?
You've come to the right place!
We are Nichola and Tig, Dietitians with more than 20 years of NHS experience between us. We have accrued masses of nutritional knowledge and can break down nutrition science into manageable bite-sized chunks, so you don't have to.
Welcome To The Dietary Edit
What Do We Do?
There's so much information about nutrition at our fingertips it's easy to become bamboozled and overwhelmed. One minute fats are bad, then they're good; it's challenging to know what's what.
That's where we come in, nutrition is our passion, and we live and breathe all things science. We sift the fact from fiction, so you don't have to, and we deliver dietary advice in a simple tailored way. Hence, it is easy to follow, and you have a clear action plan to help you achieve your health goals.
We are a trusty, reliable source of information and break down the science around why what you eat can have positive and negative effects on your body and brain, depending on what you're experiencing. Food is neither good nor bad, but sometimes you need specific advice about navigating your plate.
Dietitian, Dietician or Nutritionist?
What's the difference? Knowing who you're working with and their credentials are essential. We are all about the scientific evidence base, which is vital to maintain our registration as Dietitians. To clarify any confusion around spelling, Dietician is how our American colleagues spell our professional title; we drop the 'c' in the UK.
Who Do We Work With?
You.
We work with people like you who struggle to determine if they need to change their diet. You don't need to wait for a referral from a doctor. You book a time to talk to us about what you need help with, so there are no long waiting times to sort out those niggles.
Are you struggling to determine if a particular food is the cause of your gut problems? You've heard of the low fodmap diet, but it sounds tricky, and you're desperate to manage the bloating.
You might have been yo-yo dieting for years, and the latest fad diet is one step too far. You're not sure what to do next, but you know a quick fix, isn't it?
You might have had a life-changing event such as a cancer diagnosis or a burn injury and want specific advice to help you heal or get through treatment. So how can we help you?
Our approach to nutrition focuses on you and what you can sensibly fit into your daily life and routine. Everyone is different, so we do not take a one-size-fits-all view. We can help you plan meals to fit around the advice we have given to help keep you on track with the goals you are working on that mean the most to you.
What is nutrition therapy?
Part of what a registered dietitian does is listen. We work with you to figure out what your day-to-day life looks like, what you want to achieve from dietary counselling and how we will get you there. And more importantly, is it realistic?

Lovely Words From Our Clients.
Sandy
"Talking to someone and knowing that someone was listening to my concerns was great. I knew I was getting a personal service and that helped me to feel better immediately. Nichola cared about my well-being as much as my physical issues. There is nothing I can think of to improve, except maybe some recipes that are tried and tested by people experiencing the same issues. I had a great experience and I know that I can access the service again if needed"
Johanne Harrison, Head of Patient Services at the Katie Piper Foundation
"Tig has been a delight to work with and has a vast knowledge of complex injuries and trauma and the impact this has on the body and mind. She has a great ability to connect quickly with people and put them at ease while gathering information and not losing sight of their individual goals"
