On Wednesday 23rd September our Wester Hailes Community Herbal Clinic will turn 5 years old. It’s been a wonderful journey & we couldn’t have done it without the support of so many – from our funders past & present allowing us to continue offering high quality herbal consultations by donation, to everyone who has bought a ‘Pay It Forward’ clinic appointment for someone else who can’t afford one, to everyone who has grown high quality organic herbs for us to tincture, to the Wester Hailes Medical Practice & The Health Agency for referrals & a space to practice, to Susi our volunteer dispenser & of course all the support of the local residents who come to the clinic & our CommuniTea sessions in the local community gardens – forever helping us to spread the word & bringing along new folk to find out more. It feels like we are building community together – something that has such a long & deep history in Wester Hailes.
You can read more about the clinic here, and watch our wee film too. Here is to the next 5 years & beyond, to building up community herbalism, community empowerment & community resilience.
