This Is Yorkshire Beauty at Grantley Hall: Celebrating Northern Talent & The Future of Longevity

On 24 October 2025, the Beauty & Theory team had the pleasure of attending This Is Yorkshire Beauty at the stunning Grantley Hall, an event that has fast become a highlight of the regional beauty calendar. Held as part of British Beauty Week, this full-day celebration brought together industry professionals, wellness enthusiasts and beauty innovators from across Yorkshire and beyond.

Situated in the elegant surroundings of Ripon’s iconic Grantley Hall, a luxury hotel and wellness retreat with a long history of hospitality and service excellence, the event offered a rich blend of expert-led talks, panel discussions and immersive sessions designed to inform, inspire and connect. www.grantleyhall.co.uk

Beauty & Theory’s own Odessa and Winona joined the packed programme, which championed the theme The Power of Beauty, exploring how beauty, health and longevity intersect not only in practice but in experience. With a focus on meaningful dialogue rather than surface trends, the event reinforced an important message: Yorkshire’s beauty scene is diverse, dynamic and deserving of national recognition.

Among the standout moments of the day were the panel discussions led by respected voices in health and wellness. Topics ranged from longevity and holistic wellbeing to skincare innovation and women’s health, all reflecting the event’s broader mission to elevate substantive conversations about beauty and wellness in 2025.

A particularly memorable contribution came from Yorkshire’s own Heather Jackson, CEO and co-founder of GenM, the organisation behind the Mtick, a mark of approval for products that genuinely support women navigating menopause. Heather’s session struck a meaningful chord with many in the room, prompting reflection on how clinics and practitioners can better serve this important demographic and integrate menopause-friendly care into their service offerings.
The experience of attending This Is Yorkshire Beauty also served as a reminder of the role we play in shaping the future of our industry. At Beauty & Theory, we are driven by a commitment to expert-led education, recognising that quality training underpins safe, effective and enduring practice. In a rapidly evolving landscape, staying grounded in solid fundamentals and continually refining them is key to delivering excellence for both practitioners and clients alike.
Our approach to training is built on rigorous standards with a forward-looking vision. It’s not about quick trends or shortcuts; it’s about equipping therapists and aesthetic professionals with the depth of understanding and practical confidence needed to thrive and to keep clients returning with trust and satisfaction.
This Is Yorkshire Beauty reminded us that longevity, in its truest sense, is about enhancing quality of life. Whether through mindful movement, insightful panel talks, wellness sessions or expert skincare treatments, the event celebrated ways in which beauty professionals help clients lead healthier, more empowered lives.
In reflecting on the day, we are reminded that events like this do more than showcase products and services, they bring community, conversation and innovation to the heart of our industry. For Beauty & Theory, attending Grantley Hall was not only inspiring but reaffirmed our belief in the strength and potential of Yorkshire’s beauty community.
We look forward to carrying the energy and insights from This Is Yorkshire Beauty into our work and to continuing to champion high-quality training and wellbeing for therapists and clients throughout the region. www.britishbeautyweek.co.uk
