It is with some sadness that I am announcing the closing of the shop in Bristol and online sales at the end of March. The shop will be closing its doors on March 28th, and the Urban Fringe website will be closing at the same time. I am relocating my herbal medicine practice to Cardiff, and from April onwards, once the move is complete, will be offering my services as a Medical Herbalist from my new base there and hope to continue seeing patients face to face or via zoom.
I have run the Bristol shop and clinic since 2009, and started the online business as a side project in 2015. The online sales grew rapidly during the pandemic and have continued since then, to the extent that online sales have become a major part of the business, which has been great, but ultimately not so satisfying. I have reached the point where I can no longer devote my time and energy to manufacturing and selling herbal preparations, and have decided that from April onwards I will be purely focusing on my patients, working with the traditional model of consulting and prescribing.
For my many wonderful shop customers, many of whom have been coming in for years, I know this might be a bit of a blow, as it will no longer be possible to access the full range of herbs and tinctures that we stock. Please be assured that I will continue to maintain my extensive tincture dispensary, and will be able to post out prescriptions and some single tinctures to regular customers and patients. From April I will no longer be supplying dried herbs, powders or creams.
From April onwards all enquiries should be made by email via maxdrake.co.uk. By April I should have a new phone number in place as well.
