About Huggles & Cuddles
Founder’s Story & Mission
Amran Mohammed, the founder of Huggles & Cuddles, brings over 15 years of experience in the public, private, and charity sectors. Her journey began in the world of business psychology, where she developed a deep understanding of human behaviour. This foundation led her to work within both the Family and Criminal Courts, gaining invaluable insights into the emotional complexities faced by individuals navigating the legal system.
Through her work with vulnerable people, Amran identified a significant need for safe spaces that provide emotional healing and comfort outside of traditional therapeutic settings. This realisation led to the creation of Huggles & Cuddles—a service that merges her passion for helping others with her belief in the therapeutic power of platonic touch.
Amran’s mission is to offer a nurturing environment where clients can reconnect with themselves and find peace. At Huggles & Cuddles, we aim to make you feel heard, valued, and supported in a safe, non-judgmental space.

Whether you’re healing from trauma, dealing with stress, or simply seeking comfort, Amran’s sessions provide the emotional care you deserve.
As a Senior Independent Domestic Violence Advisor, with a strong focus on safeguarding, Amran understands the importance of trust, boundaries, and the need for safety.
