Join us for Congress 2016 Thursday 3 to Sunday 6 November “ Congress is a uniquely rewarding event, bringing together people with a passion for homeopathy from ”
a spectrum of disciplines. I look forward to welcoming you to our 11th Congress, hosted in beautiful Belfast. – Dr Helen Beaumont, President of the Faculty of Homeopathy General Information
The British Homeopathic Congress is recognised as one of the most intellectually and socially stimulating events in the homeopathic calendar. For the first time ever, in 2016 this biennial event is coming to Belfast, Northern Ireland’s largest city, where we hope you will join us. The traditional Irish greeting, “Céad Míle Fáilte”, which translates as “A hundred thousand welcomes” reflects the warm and convivial hospitality that awaits you in Belfast. Local must-see attractions include Titanic Belfast, City Hall, Game of Thrones film sets, Crumlin Road Gaol and the Giant’s Causeway.
Dr Julie Geraghty
Dr Heiner Frei
Dr Jonathan Hardy
Dr Elizabeth Thompson
Centred on the theme, Homeopathy: Healthy Patients Healthy Practice, delegates will enjoy presentations, seminars and workshops delivered by leading homeopaths from the UK and around the globe. Topics for discussion will include the first UK presentation by Swiss Paediatrician Dr Heiner Frei, who will be introducing his very successful approach to treatment of children with ADHD; Dr Jonathan Hardy's video cases of patients with severe addictions markedly helped by Homeopathy; Dr Julie Geraghty introducing the new Gemstone remedies like Amethyst, Diamond and Emerald (also very useful in addiction) and Dr Elizabeth Thompson discussing the usefulness of the Hydrocarbon remedies in treating patients with cancer.
Who should attend Faculty members and associates, homeopaths, students of homeopathy, other healthcare professionals and anyone with an interest in homeopathy. Whatever your level of experience, the workshops and presentations at Congress 2016 will interest, inform and inspire. And not only is Congress an enjoyable learning and social experience, attendance also counts towards CPD (a maximum of 16 hours).
