CORE Clapton

Health, Happiness and Movement

Core Clapton was founded to bring health, happiness and movement to the whole community. Based in Clapton we offer classes, activities and therapies specialising in Osteopathy.

As a registered charity we provide affordable osteopathy to those in the community that can't afford it whilst encouraging best practise through research and learning with a long-term mission to encourage drug-free pain relief across all healthcare professions.

We are all about equality of health and wellbeing: we believe everybody has the right to a pain-free life. Osteopathy can restore health and function, helping people get back to doing what they enjoy most, but we place equal importance on the tools to keep bodies working to their full potential, promoting activities and habits for a healthier lifestyle and providing a good understanding of how bodies work.

We offer concessions or subsidised rates for many of these classes as well as the osteopathy sessions to ensure that our centre is accessible to all. We are able to do this by generating revenue from hiring out our facilities for events such as concerts or weddings, and by charging normal high-street prices to those able to pay.

Core Clapton actively seeks and encourages applications from candidates from diverse backgrounds and so weactively encourageapplications from eligible candidates from a BAME background.
