Katherine MacBean founder of The Peoples Health Alliance and Peoples Food & Farming Alliance

Katherine MacBean is the founder of The Peoples Health Alliance and Peoples Food and Farming Alliance. She joins Philly this week on The Wellness Way to talk about what is happening in our food and farming industries, as well as how she put together the PHA, Peoples Health Alliance, which has been a remarkable success.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The food industry has such a tight hold over farming in the UK and their demands are leading to more and more chemicals being used and more and more people working in that industry becoming ill because of this.
The PHA started with a grand, yet simple, vision for the future. A future where Big Pharma (and Big Everything) no longer has control over We, The People; where the power of choice is returned to the individual and we shift the paradigm from treating disease, to creating health.
The PHA is creating an organic, people-led approach to healthcare, bringing everything back to community level, for The People, by The People.
The principles of the PHA are: We take personal responsibility for our own health; We work collaboratively, together, as practitioner and patient; We are all equals regardless of our role; We believe access to healthcare is a right, not a privilege; We welcome everyone; We embrace an integrative approach to health; We acknowledge the role of nature in healing; We recognise the importance of preventative care.

BEST MOMENTS

‘It’s always been in my blood to not stand by when I see injustices’
‘This monopolisation of the food business is very dangerous for our future’
‘We ended up with about 10,000 people in one week’

ABOUT THE GUEST

Katherine is a founding member of PHA. Her career has predominantly been focused on developing new/small businesses from a variety of sectors, with a large focus on the agricultural sector. This is where her realisation of the immense corruption throughout all major industries was born, and she vowed to build the new and adjust the old for many years.
Katherine has felt passionately, for decades, about returning power and choice back to the people, naturally devolving central powers. Katherine is an engaging speaker, harnessing her skills with communication to help PHA reach people across the world and inspire them to take action.
