Clara Challoner Walker BSc Hons (Imperial) ARCS

Clara is a qualified chemist who started Cosy Cottage Soap in 2016 after recovering from breast cancer.

During her illness, Clara developed an interest in the links between our health and substances present in commercially produced personal care products. Following her recovery, she decided to create a range of products free from artificial additives, dyes and paraben based preservatives from her kitchen. The business has grown and Cosy Cottage now operate two manufacturing workshops and a retail store in Malton, North Yorkshire, selling online and through retail stores across the UK.

Clara's passion is sharing her knowledge and experience with workshop attendees.
