This month we have a lot of exciting news! Firstly, Helen’s son Henry is cycling from London to Rome in 15 days! Henry and his friend, Nick will overall cycle 1947km to raise money for Cure Parkinsons. This charity is particularly close to our hearts here at Helen Hunt Aesthetics as Helen’s own mother is currently living with this disease.

We’re so proud of the boys and would love it if they could have some more support! Their journey has been narrated on Instagram @nickandhenry_loro any donations to the cause can be made through Just Giving at:
