What kind of care are you looking for?
The kind that waits until disease has taken charge and requires toxic drugs, surgery to replace bits going wrong or applies brutal radiation to burn things?
Or are you looking to prevent becoming ill in the first place?
Because that's where our little shop and clinic come in.
We have experts here who can create tailored solutions just for you and your family to support good health and vitality.
A case in point is what I see in my osteopathic clinic every week - a person who has spent years using anti inflammatory medication for decades because of a painful knee that is now so shot to pieces they need a knee replacement.
Yet, if they had sought an appropriate structural fix to the knee pain three decades ago, they would not have needed pain killers to mask the fact they were doing more harm than good.
As always, this is not about being anti pharmaceuticals, they have a place that can be life saving but surely health care is more powerful than disease care in the long run?

A lad came into the shop last month clutching his phone, showing me a screenshot of a supplement an algorithm had recommended him. "It said this was perfect for me," he said.

I asked him what it actually was, what it did, whether it interacted with anything else he was taking. He didn't know. The app didn't ask.

That's the difference, really, in one small moment. Not just in our shop but in all the lovely shops this town has to offer.

We could close the shop up and believe me, the pressure we face everyday makes one wonder is it all worth it?

We could put everything online, and let a website do the talking. It'd be cheaper that’s for sure. But it'd miss the whole point of what we have here in Garstang, a shop full of conversations, not just products.

When you walk through our door, we don't need a data set to know what you need. We can just ask. Are you sleeping alright? Is it your knees again, or is it new? We remember what worked for you last time, and what didn't. No algorithm holds that kind of memory, because no algorithm has actually met you.

And our advice is free. It always has been and in this day and age of phone lines and surgeries telling you to go straight to A&E, that has real value.

You don't need to buy a thing to come in and ask us a question. We'd rather send you away with the right answer and nothing in a bag than sell you something that was never going to help.

High streets are supposed to be dying, or so we're told. But we were never trying to compete on price or convenience. We're competing on something no algorithm can manufacture: a genuine, ongoing relationship with the people who walk through our door.

So next time your app tells you what you need — pop in and ask us first. We might agree with it. We might not. Either way, you'll actually get an answer based on expertise and care.

Where do you choose to spend your money?

These days many people ignore the fact they have to pay for postage with the major online players, just to get a package hurled over a fence at them. Because whilst that's a cost, it's still less effort than faffing about going into town.

Of course we lose the human touch. But I fear that for many, that doesn't seem to matter given our addiction to our screens these days. Who needs people when we can have a chat with AI?

For me, I will always prefer local, seasonal, independent over anything else. Why? Because it connects me to my community in ways tech and global supply chains simply cannot.

I love finding independent shops in any little town I visit instead of the same shops, the same products, wherever I go.

And what we don't realise is that we can all make a profound difference to this — and enhance our own towns — by making simple choices about where we place our money.

What choices do you make?
And does it enhance your local area?

Monday morning comes around again in the blink of an eye!

As I trundle around trying to find parking, it strikes me that it's almost as if the powers that be don't want us to have functioning towns, filled with a balance of interesting, high quality independent stores alongside a sensible mix of the bigger players.

Because I could park right next to a huge supermarket and get free parking for however many hours THEY decide upon. They know full well their proximity to that car park, with its unblinking eye cameras everywhere, means more business lands at their feet than into town.

Meanwhile I have to pay every day to come into work, and of course shoppers have to pay to park too.

It's not a level playing field. And it's shaping which towns thrive and which ones slowly empty out.

The Lucozade story
I asked my wife's friend, a research scientist, what he was working on. He said he was trying to work out the best sports hydration drink.
I said, "we both know what that is....water." He laughed and agreed... then said, "but Lucozade are paying for my research."
That one sentence has stuck with me for years. He wasn't lying, he wasn't a bad scientist, and I don't think he was even uncomfortable admitting it.
That's just how a huge amount of research gets funded, a company with a product identifies a question, pays for a study that's shaped around getting a favourable answer, and the results end up on the label, in the marketing, and eventually repeated as fact by people who've never questioned where it came from.
It's not a conspiracy, it's just commerce. Research is expensive, and someone has to pay for it. But when the person paying also has a horse in the race, "evidence-based" starts to mean something a bit different than we're led to believe.
I'm not saying ignore science at all, I'm suggesting we learn to read the small print the same way you'd read the ingredients list.
Who funded it, who benefits from the conclusion, and does the "best" answer suspiciously happen to be a product rather than the free, boring thing that was sat there all along (in this case, water from your own tap).
And don't forget, many modern drugs started out as a herbal medicine in a far off rain forest with ancient wisdom and observation backing it.
If you want to connect to natural, ancient wisdom then come and have a look at the remedies we have in store, you might be pleasantly surprised about what we have and what we do.
