SUBJECT: Overturn the ban on Willby’s colic mix
I am writing to you to about the ban you imposed on Willby’s compounding their colic mix. This mix has been lifechanging for mums and bubs and your decision has a devastating impact on families and the mental health of mums.
Your action based on the recent negative coverage of belladonna is unjust. Willby’s are transparent about the use of this ingredient, tailor doses specifically for each baby and discuss with parents during their consult, allowing them to make an informed decision.
This ingredient has not been banned for use in Australia. This appears to be a targeted and politically motivated attack against this small business that has helped countless families over the years.
You can see the outpouring of support from past and current customers on Willby’s social media, and through the online petition: change.org/SaveWillbys
Your decision has not only devastated Willby’s customers, but will force the closure of a small local business and result in numerous job losses, with a flow-on effect through other Victorian suppliers that Willby’s bought from.
Please reconsider your decision so Willby’s can keep helping families like they have been over the last 30 years.
