Paula, the founder of Old Bexley Soap Co. has been making natural soaps, skincare and home fragrances since 2014. She found soap and candle making a very therapeutic way to escape from the daily stresses of working in finance and a great life balance. She is very passionate about the products she creates and loves sharing this passion for Soap and Candle Making in her courses. The courses take place in Bexley with students coming from London, Kent, Essex, East Sussex or even further.

Paula's aim is to inspire others by providing them with the necessary ability and knowledge to make their own products at home.

The love for artisan products continues to rise, the idea of craft has spread along the high street in recent years.

Old Bexley Soap Co. courses are comprehensive 5 hour courses to learn the art of soap making or candle making properly, they are excellent for beginners wanting to make their own products but also a great starting point for those who want to start their own soap or candle making business.

Paula has also just received a commendation award from the Mayor of Bexley for the donations of soaps and creams to our local hospitals, GP surgeries, food banks, nursing homes and more since March with her campaign "We can't help everyone but everyone can help someone" where her own customers donated towards the cost of materials for the donations. During the lockdown Paula developed a small range of antimicrobial artisan products, and donated her best-selling soaps in a moment of much need for such products.

Paula's range in the last few months has rapidly increased, with a great variety of high quality artisan cosmetics and home fragrances. Many people opt for a click and collect service but orders can be posted too. Paula hand delivers to locals that are self isolating or are shielding.
