About Nicki

With 20 years experience of expertise navigating environmental illness and autoimmune disease, in 2005 I founded the national charity MCS-Aware. The aim was to provide information and support to anyone affected by chemical, food and electro-sensitivites. I am now able to share this experience and knowledge to help other people improve their own wellbeing.
Public awareness of the issues of pollution and toxicity is growing. Problems of poor sleep, concentration and behaviour issues are now acknowledged to be affected by environmental triggers. Eczema, asthma and allergies are increasing at an unprecedented rate. Chemotherapy treatment can leave patients sensitve to cleaning products and toiletries - simple things like hair products, air fresheners and shampoo can all cause reactions.
When I first fell ill with multiple chemical sensitivity, my immune and detoxification systems became overwhelmed and I reacted to the slightest trace of petrochemicals, chlorine in tap water, almost all foods, and even natural things like essential oils. I also started to react to specific frequencies of magnetic, electrical and microwave radiation - my phone gave me sudden head pains, my computer made my face burn, I collapsed if I ate anything with a trace of pesticides or mould. I was diagnosed with Chronic Fatugue Syndrome and became bedbound.

The complication of Crohn's disease didn't help and my weight plummeted. I had a 3 month stay in hospital with emergency stomach surgery and repeat stays to try and clear up internal infections. Unfortunately I reacted badly to most of the medical treatments as my body simply couldn't metabolise them and I nearly died from the anaesthetic. Back in 2000 there was not much help for people who were so severely affected and it was a steep learning curve to make sense of what was going on. To share this information I founded a support group for others who were similarly affected. 15 years later MCS-Aware has become a national charity helping people worldwide to cope and begin to recover from environmental illness.
Having significantly reccovered my health, I can now share my expertise with people who want to improve their own wellbeing. Whether you are simply interested in learning more about creating a healthy environment, have specific symptoms that seem to be triggered by your home or workplace or have multiple sensitivities, I can work with you to troubleshoot the issues and come up with an action plan to help you move forward.
