New all-natural product store comes to Richmond Hill
Catherine Gill at Reality Check's ribbon cutting ceremony
Reality Check recently opened its doors in Richmond Hill. The shop offers all-natural and refurbished products, including cotton linens, towels and antiques. Catherine Gill, the owner of the store, says the concept for Reality Check came from a place very close to home — her own son. Gill’s son suffers from allergies and disabilities, and she created the store with the hope that children like her own can live in a safer environment. “My son has autism and allergies, and there is a link between chemicals and his attacks, making his autism worse,” she says. To find out more about the store, call 416-907-0694 or visit Reality Check at 12261Yonge St.
