It all started in adversity.
The Nab Lab was always a pipe dream, until Brooke was diagnosed with breast cancer, at the age of 42, in August 2023, and whilst sat at a Ribble Valley breast cancer group one evening in November 2023, listening to a lady talk to us about her jewellery making company, she thought to herself, she could make her dream a reality if she really wanted to and knowing she had time off for treatment, what better time to start?
Brooke wanted to make something positive, out of a terribly tough and sad situation and the gin school was her focus whilst she was stuck in hospital or at home in bed recovering from the numerous treatments and surgeries. It gave Brooke real purpose.
Brooke's life had been literally turned upside down and as a busy working mum, her priorities had started to change and she really wanted to do something for her, she realised how short and fragile life is and that you aren’t immortal, so through her chemo, she cracked on with the planning side of the business, wrote a business plan, ordered a mini distiller, which was kept in the utility room and made lots of gin and this started the ball rolling with the planning stage, as soon as the chemo had finished, and whilst recovering from eight major surgeries, Brooke started the planning and license applications and also designed a logo, branding and the interior of the gin school, and through this time The Nab Lab was born and built. Brooke is super proud of what she has set up and can’t wait to see The Nab Lab and her gin - spirit of The Nab grow.
