Leeds

For six years I have run a sewing studio in Leeds. In June, a long illness and repossession took a cutting table and overlocker. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me. Before that, my customers came every Monday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 3 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 $2,250 goes: • Replacing a cutting table and overlocker: $1,200 • Initial stock: fabric: $230 • Shop repairs and licensing: $500 • Working capital for the first month: $320 I hope life is good to you.
