World Cancer Day
Camellia's Tea House
We're a speciality and wellness tea company with many of our teas and herbal infusions designed and hand-blended by us.
Cancer is a critical health and human issue. On World cancer day, February 4th, there is a global awareness around this topic and the world unites to support and take action against cancer. Together we can spread the word, speak up and stand up for a future without?cancer, as well as support those who are having their own personal battle with cancer, or supporting someone close to them with their cancer journey.

At Camellia’s Tea House we have been endeavouring to create our own narrative about cancer. In 2021 we researched and developed our amazing range of functional therapy teas, which are designed to help people living with cancer to help alleviate some of symptoms associated with this chronic disease - and also to support their mental and physical health.
?
We have collaborated with our chosen cancer charity, Yes to Life, to help raise money donations, awareness and support for people facing the challenge of having cancer. Yes to Life is the UK’s leading integrative cancer care charity and it helps people find financial support, resources and information, that are currently only available with private health care.

So what has been going on in our Functional Therapy Tea journey in the last year and how have we carved our own path around cancer? Lets see how our calendar in 2022 panned out:
?
Early January after a lengthy research and development process, we finally launched our Therapy Teas into the professional spa and health markets, it was very well received by the spa industry as many spa partners have been training their teams to deliver treatments tailored to those experiencing cancer symptoms and cancer treatment related ailments and stresses. At the start of the year we partnered with clients such as South Lodge Spa, Akasha Spa at The Café Royal and the Fairmont in Windsor Park to launch these new functional teas. They have been received with great success by their customers for general health and wellness purposes, as well supporting those suffering with this chronic disease.
?
In Spring we launched our retail packaging, using beautiful illustrations of the key ingredients in the therapy teas. These were met with great positivity. We launched on Amazon and some smaller retail partners such as Nirvana Spa retail.

Summer we experimented with Iced versions of our Therapy Tea & realised they are delicious and with the heatwave some of our clients such as Rockliffe Hall Spa started to serve the Therapy Teas to guest poolside.
Later in the summer we also launched with Beechwood Cancer Care offers free support to people and families with life limiting illness including cancer care. They serve the Therapy Teas as a comforter in their bereavement café, as well as offering them as a supportive functional beverage for their complementary therapies.

Autumn saw the launch at Coworth Park, Dorchester Collection and we also sponsored and attended our chosen charity the Yes to Life Annual Conference and Event in central London hosted by founder Robin Daly.
?
Winter we dialled up our social media focus around Therapy Teas for cancer care and mental health issues. Retail sales are building on our own website which is so exciting as every retail pack of Therapy Tea purchased we send a donation to Yes To Life.

What an exciting 1st year!
We are busy coming up with more exciting ideas and wellness initiatives for 2023. On World Cancer Day our hearts go out to every single person battling cancer and to the families and friends who are supporting them.
