Nottingham
For fifteen years I have run a fish stall in Nottingham. In February, a fire in the building took a freezer and scales. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Sunday, and I employed 2 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 10 weeks. This business pays my children's school fees and rent. I have already started working from home in small ways, but I can't meet orders without proper equipment. Every contribution brings me closer to reopening, and I promise to post photos as I buy each item. I'll buy equipment from local suppliers and post photos and receipts as I go. Where the $2,650 goes: • Replacing a freezer and scales: $990 • Initial stock: the first catch: $650 • Shop repairs and licensing: $400 • Working capital for the first month: $610 Thanks for reading all this. - Nolan

  • Hope it all works out, Nolan. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like

    • I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. I hope April is when things finally get easier. All the best

      • Thinking of you. Hope you make a strong comeback. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too.

        • thinking of you and your family, Nolan. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.

          • praying for you, Nolan. Shared this with my family. Love from Winston-Salem.

            • Thinking of you and your family, Nolan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless.

                • Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My neighbor in Shubra donated after I showed her your page. Love from Shubra.
