Hatters Update:
Well its been a wild past two months, moving and setting up a new shop. The new home at feels amazing, such an amazing space. Had an official launch, some work on the benches and the process of growing into the space continues. I am taking bookings for work and repairs etc, but currently having a little break after having my knee fixed. Thankful for my friends, family and of course the wonderful NHS :) I am very blessed, but I cant wait to be back at the bench

Hatters Update:

It is with much sadness that Hatters time in wonderful Devon is coming to an end. Due to a change in circumstances I (and the business) are moving back to southampton. I want to say a massive thank you to all my Devon customers, and an even bigger thank you to all those who have supported me in this amazing adventure. It's been brilliant. I feel incredibly blessed.

For all those back home, the workshop will be up and running asap and I look forward seeing you soon. Until then I will be taking a brief break from social media to focus on the move etc. Be blessed folks
