Meet our founder and director Felicity Morrell.
Felicity is an Accredited Practicing Dietitian and Nutritionist with over 15 years experience. A proud Riverland local, Felicity grew up in Barmera, and is passionate about bringing high quality nutrition services to the Riverland and rural areas.
Felicity’s career has spanned across multiple states, from major metropolitan hospitals to small rural communities. She moved home to the Riverland in 2015 where she raises her young family, and thoroughly enjoys country life.
Staying up to date with the current evidence in nutrition is something Felicity really values, and she loves turning this into practical strategies for you to implement in your day to day life. She’s a firm believer in cutting through the confusion to bring you evidence backed advice that you can trust. Its confusing out there, so let her help make it simple for you.
Felicity’s primary areas of interest are women’s health, fertility, and gut health, however she is an experienced generalist and works across all areas of nutrition.
Outside of work, you’ll find her in the garden, spending time with her young family, and creating a mess in the kitchen.
