Meet the Founder
Kerry — Founder of Alchemy Garden
20 YEARS • ENTREPRENEUR • AWARD WINNING • BEAUTY PROFESSIONAL • RUNNER • NATURE LOVER
”I’ve spent 20 years creating businesses around the things I love. Alchemy Garden brings together my passion for beauty, fragrance, nature and the countryside I’ve always called home.”
With over 20 years in the beauty and retail industry, Kerry is an experienced beauty professional, entrepreneur and lifelong lover of nature.
Her entrepreneurial journey began in the beauty industry, where she built her own successful business and developed a passion for creating brands that make people feel good.
Over the years, her work has been recognised with numerous industry and business awards, including Beautician of the Year, Essex Business Awards Young Entrepreneur of the Year in 2013, followed by Business Woman of the Year in 2014 and Highly Commended Small Business of the Year.
In 2025, her first lifestyle brand, London & Me, was recognised with a Muddy Stilettos Award for Best Women’s Style, another milestone in her journey as an independent female entrepreneur.
But beyond the awards and the businesses, Kerry has always had a deep love for nature, the countryside and the simple beauty of everyday life.
A keen runner, she spends much of her free time outdoors, exploring the countryside around her home in, Essex. She has always been fascinated by birds, wildflowers, changing seasons and the feeling of being surrounded by nature.
It was this love of the outdoors, combined with her lifelong passion for home fragrance and beautiful homes, that inspired Alchemy Garden in 2025.
“I wanted to create something that captured the feeling of where I live.”
Alchemy Garden is a very personal brand — inspired by the fields, gardens, wildlife and village life that surround Kerry every day.
Each home fragrance is created to bring a little piece of that world indoors; the scent of an English garden, a countryside walk, birds in the garden and those quiet moments that make you stop and appreciate where you are.
From a 20-year career in beauty and entrepreneurship to a lifelong love of the countryside, Alchemy Garden is the next chapter — and perhaps the most personal one yet.
Rooted in Essex.
Inspired by nature.
