A New Addition to Our Mission Statement
February 2009 When we started the Holistic Shop business and website we mapped out five main aims that would encompass our mission statement. However we have now added a sixth aim, which explains our policy towards the three "R's" - reduce, reuse and recycle.
We feel it is important to explain what we are doing towards minimising the waste we send to landfill, and our effect on the environment.

Purchases and Payment Options
To make a purchase, just browse our catalogue pages; for items that you wish to buy simply click on the "Add to basket" icon. This simply stores your choice - you can remove it later on before you make your final purchase. When you've finished shopping, click on "View Basket" to be taken through the checkout and purchase process.
We accept online debit and credit card payment by Visa , Mastercard, Delta and Maestro. We don't charge for any item until it's ready for delivery. Backordered items are not charged until they are delivered to you. From Monday 2nd March 2009, we will no longer accept postal and faxed orders; this was a decision we took as both increased administration and logistics costs (we live a long way away from the bank!) mean that we weren't offering customers the best service with these options. Payment is accepted in pounds sterling (GBP) - if you need to convert a different currency into sterling, please use our currency converter link.
