The first Bloom Event was held in October 2012 at the Shangri La Hotel, Cairns. The concept of Bloom came

about when it was recognised that more information is needed in the area of preventative health. Much

focus today is on raising awareness and early diagnosis whereas there are simple steps we can take to help

prevent disease in the first place, and support the body’s natural healing process. Through delivering

professional events such as Bloom we can share knowledge, educate ourselves, support each other and

inspire vibrant, healthy living within our community.

The day provides a wonderful opportunity in the beautiful tropical surrounds of the Cairns Colonial

Club to connect and network with people who are keen to improve their health and wellbeing, or for

those seeking support on their wellness journey.

I loved the venue! Although we were inside all day (as

an exhibitor), the outside was visible. It was a huge

success and the buzz experienced by all was quite

electric, inspiring and most definitely "feel good!”

Amanda Lee, Natural Grow

“Thankyou for including us in your Bloom expo , we found it to

be a good networking opportunity to re establish our brand

and create awareness of the future building of the Wellness

centre. I was pleased that many of the stall holders were keen

to offer their help in some way to COUCH”

Pip Woodward, Secretary, Cairns COUCH

“I had fun at the Expo and it was a great chance to

network with likeminded business people!”

Sacha Maujean, Founder, My Gypsy Child

“The exhibition was great. Loads of great information and the

thing that stood out for me was the number of people that

stayed for a long period of time. They just didn't come in and do

a walk through. They came through the hall then went to a lec-

ture and came back into the hall again and repeated this several

times. We had loads of interest and hopefully we get a couple of

new members from the wonderful people we met.” Pauline

Gleeson, Managing Director, Viva Fitness “Just a quick email to thank you again for fitting our

little display at your event. Glad we exhibited! Well

done again and congratulations on running such a

successful event.”

Jaypee Abraham, General Manager, Jimalie "I would like to congratulate you for a job well done! The

professionalism and attention to detail was simply

outstanding. The magazine is just so well done. What a

beautiful opportunity you presented to all…..thanks so much"

Shivany Gonell, Founder, Reclaim Inner Peace

“I have nothing but praise for the enormous effort youmade to

bring the bloom expo together well done! I was really

impressed with the amount of effort and content that went into

the displays by the exhibitors. The training school had a very

successful day we had 35 course packs that we handed out with

the potential to generate 35 new students for 2014!“

Karen Huggett , Business Manager, At Ease Natural Therapies

“I loved the layout of the stalls, the thought and attention to details, the love and the absolute care to all stall holders.”
