Key People

Annie Batchelor is the college Principal and brings a wealth of experience to the role. She has been practising homeopathy since 1984 and is forever widening and deepening her understanding. Not only is she an outstanding teacher, but she has done much work on standards of education with various educational establishments and as a member of The Society of Homeopaths eEducation Steering Committee. Her commitment to homeopathy, and for people working and learning together, shines through into the course.

The team are all dedicated practitioners and educators who also share a passion for homeopathy and the education of competent, confident, professional homeopathic practitioners. They are the members of the co-operative that is the Salisbury Homeopathy College.

Here are their personal thoughts about Homeopathy and its education:

Annie Batchelor RS Hom: Principal
“My personal discovery of homeopathy was more of a realisation that here was a philosophy that felt kind to people and benign to the planet. I had been a passionate organic gardener and then a smallholder and saw how my animals reacted to homeopathy too. Compassion informs everything I do, and homeopathic teaching is a central part of my personal philosophy and what I want for the world. My view of what we do is that in small ways we have a large effect, and in a nutshell that’s homeopathy!”

Lulu Badger RS Hom: Head of Materia Medica
“For me, homeopathy offers the patient freedom from the constraints of conventional pharmaceutical-based medicine whilst the education of homeopathy ensures that this extraordinarily successful treatment method can positively continue to help us all, patient, practitioner and student, gain a true understanding of the human condition.”

Alison Fixsen RS Hom: Head of Research
Homeopathy is part of how I see the world, view health and live my life. As a teacher there is nothing more fulfilling that seeing students blossoming into confident, competent and caring practitioners.

Sue Stotter RS Hom: Head of Clinical Education
“The study of Homeopathy is an essential part of its progress into the 21st Century. As homeopaths it is our responsibility to expose homeopathy and it value to our community. ”

Jackie Dawson MSHC: Head of Professional Development, Administrator
“Homeopathy is about the whole, not the parts, yet the parts reveal the whole. Studying homeopathy teaches more than the art of this medicine, it puts balance back into how we relate to the world and others.”

Suzie Nichol RS Hom: Head of Alumni
William Allen described education as: “..not the answer to the question (but) … the means to the answer to all questions”. How appropriate to link education with homeopathy which is not the answer to health but the means to a way of life! Teaching homeopathy is a privilege-witnessing the education of homeopathy fulfils a sense of duty as a homeopath in guaranteeing the continuation in making homeopathy available to everyone in our community.
