BANKS-LYON BOTANICAL
From a family heritage in retail that spans over four generations, founder Gorgina Banks-Lyon's inspiration to run her own business came from her great, great grandfather, who opened a high quality leather store on Church Street, Lancaster in 1887. With a reputation for customer service and family values, it is still run by her father today.
Growing up with very sensitive skin, Georgina struggled to find high street products that didn’t contain chemicals or preservatives that also offered the spa-like pamper she was looking for. Following a few experiments and many hours around the kitchen table with her husband Simon, Banks-Lyon Botanical was born.
After selling their first soap loaves to friends and family, the couple soon out-grew the kitchen table (and the spare room), and moved to offices in Ramsbottom, in the heart of beautiful countryside north of Manchester.
Today, even though the business has gone from strength to strength Georgina & Simon still make everything themselves by hand. They also strive for a healthy work-life balance, and make time to take a few days out during school holidays to visit the Lake District and spend quality time with their two boys, Atticus and Rufus. Soon after becoming a new mum, Georgina still worked tirelessly and even formulated a collection of beautiful baby products that make great gifts for newborns and baby showers.
We're absolutely addicted to the gorgeous smell of the Brand's uniquely named little bath bars and can't wait to see what lovely blends they come up with next!
Delighted with the handkerchiefs. Great concept hope you do well going forward. Thanks
I was pleased to be offered unscented sheets and have since been pleased with their performance.
Website easy to negotiate and also pleased to use a UK firm.
So all round pretty pleased.
I recently came across green tulip; recommended by a friend. I was delighted by the products I saw and placed a gift order immediately. I received an incredibly personalised note in response to my order; even making me aware I had added a gift box to an already boxed product and an offer to refund me the gift box; a very honest and trusted exchange. Upon arrival the gift was magnificent quality.
Would recommend to everyone
Wow, I was blown away by the quality of the two makeup bags that I ordered. The material is such lovely quality, and the colours are stunning. I'm absolutely thrilled with my items. They were really nice packed too, which made them extra special to open
