In March 2017, The Combe Grove Estate came under the stewardship of The Elmhurst Foundation Charitable Trust, with three key objectives:
- To promote and expand knowledge in the field of public health and wellbeing
- To provide high-quality enhanced apprenticeships for local residents
- To share facilities and expertise for the benefit of the local community
Having transitioned from a hotel to a Metabolic Health Centre, the Estate now provides Metabolic Membership for local residents, virtual participants and clients who stay at Combe Grove as part of their journey to rest, restore and reset their metabolic health.
What is the Bursary Fund?
The Combe Grove Bursary Fund is a dedicated resource designed to provide financial support to individuals seeking to improve their metabolic health but who may face financial barriers.
Bursaries at 25%, 50%, or 75% of the programme cost are accessible to eligible individuals.
The fund can be used towards the following Metabolic Health Programmes:
- Health Reset Days
- Combe Grove at Home
- Mini Metabolic Programme / Preparing for Surgery Programme
Health Reset Day
Our Metabolic Health Reset Day is a one-day immersive experience designed for those at the beginning of their health journey or simply looking for a restorative, educational day with lasting impact. It offers an introduction to the fundamentals of metabolic health through engaging workshops, practical demonstrations, two nutritious meals and a comprehensive health check. It is ideal for busy people and those wanting to take the first step towards improving their health.
From £225
Combe Grove at Home
Combe Grove at Home is our 12-week virtual programme designed to deliver the benefits of our residential metabolic health retreats in a flexible, home-based format. It combines individual guidance from a metabolic health coach with group connection and webinars based on the 5 Roots of Metabolic Health™. Participants receive a Welcome Box with practical tools to support their journey, alongside three 1:1 coaching sessions and online support.
From £1,200
Mini Metabolic / Preparing for Surgery
The Mini Metabolic Health Programme is a 3 day programme that includes 2 nights’ accommodation. Guests are provided with two nutritionally balanced meals each day, based on our food ethos promoting real foods low in carbohydrates and rich in protein and natural fats to rebalance metabolic health.
Blood tests and body composition analysis are included in the package, along with in depth workshops focused on our 5 Roots of Metabolic Health™. Clients have the option to book in for a 1:1 nutritional consultation to discuss their results and plan any changes to achieve their health goals.
There are optional extra movement sessions tailored to those individuals needing support whilst ‘preparing for surgery’. As with all our residential packages, full use of the facilities at Combe Grove is included.

The Benefits of the Bursary Fund
The Bursary Fund can benefit GP patients by providing accessibility to our Metabolic Health Programmes, helping patients better manage or even reverse conditions such as type 2 diabetes and obesity. By reducing financial barriers, patients are more likely to engage in and sustain healthy lifestyle changes, leading to improved overall health and prevention of complications.
For GPs, this could mean better patient outcomes, as well as reduced frequency of visits related to chronic disease management and rehabilitation. The fund supports GPs’ clinical goals by providing complimentary resources that enhance patient care.
