Back to business - Nolan's comeback in Nottingham
A fish stall in Nottingham needs help replacing a freezer and scales after a fire in the building.
🇬🇧 England, United Kingdom3,889 views
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.

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.
