Hamblin Vision Publishing

Continuing the legacy of Henry Thomas Hamblin and the Hamblin Trust, we are a small, independent publisher focused on bringing transformative, spiritual and wellness information to our readers.

Hamblin Vision Publishing

Hamblin Vision Publishing was founded in 2025 as the Hamblin Trust came to a close, after being an active Charitable Trust for 65 years. Our small, independent publishing company seeks to continue the work of re-issuing Henry Thomas Hamblin’s writings, preserving his legacy for future generations.

In time, we hope to publish books by other authors whose work aligns with Hamblin’s mission: to offer guidance and support to anyone wishing to live a spiritual life, and to provide practical ways to do so in everyday living.

Hamblin Vision Publishing is run by Caroline Harrison and Mike Jenkins, both former employees of The Hamblin Trust, who now contribute their time and skills freely to support this work.

The Hamblin Trust

The Hamblin Trust ceased all outward operations in September 2025 and will officially close in December 2025.

The Trust was established following the death of Henry Thomas Hamblin in 1958. Born on 19 March 1873, Hamblin was colloquially known as “The Saint of Sussex” and, whilst essentially a Christian mystic, his philosophy was truly universal, embracing the truths found within all faiths. He was a prolific author, writing a number of books and a series of spiritual lessons, as well as publishing a magazine, The Science of Thought Review. Hamblin’s spiritual message and vision can be summarised in the phrase: “Change your thinking – change your life. Within you is the power.”

HT Hamblin (1873–1958) was a spiritual teacher and writer based in England, whose message and vision were both straightforward and deeply practical. He believed that the spiritual life and everyday life were inseparable. His teachings centred on the power of thought and the importance of meditation as a way to draw upon the inner power, wisdom and love that lie deep within every person. Hamblin referred to this inner sanctuary as “the Secret Place of the Most High,” writing long before meditation became a widely recognised practice.

After establishing a successful business as an optician in London, Hamblin went on to write a number of spiritual books.

He also published an international correspondence course of spiritual lessons, as well as a magazine titled The Science of Thought Review (later New Vision and then The Hamblin Vision, with a nod to his profession as an optician, and eventually published digitally). His correspondence course was later compiled into the comprehensive spiritual work The Way of the Practical Mystic.

Hamblin was colloquially known as HTH, and later as “The Saint of Sussex.” Whilst his teachings leaned towards esoteric Christianity, his philosophy was truly universal, embracing the essential truths found in all faiths. The emphasis of his message was on discovering the spiritual power within ourselves, expressed through the simplicity of daily life, rather than through adherence to religious doctrine. As a young man, he reacted strongly against the dogma of his strictly religious upbringing, believing that religion often divided people, whereas spirituality united them.

Hamblin experienced poverty and ill health in his early life and served in the First World War, but it was the death of his young son in 1918 that brought him to the depths of despair and ultimately gave birth to his spiritual vision. His teachings emerged from a place of profound empathy and compassion for the suffering of humankind.
