We're still collecting donations

On the 17th May 2020 we'd raised £3,065 with 50 supporters in 55 days. But as every pound matters, we're continuing to collect donations from supporters.

 New stretch target

We're hoping to cover our basic needs until government funding kicks in but with additional investment we would look to furhter develop our online retail offer and also reconfigure our shop space to accommodate public sewing workshops. 


The global COVID-19 pandemic has created a very uncertain landscape for millions of British small businesses and self employed workers, which is going to make it very challenging for many of us to survive.

Here at Bella HQ, we're proud to be two fiercely independent gals but all of our eggs are very much in the Bella basket and when disaster strikes, there is no safety net. Since the government announcements on social distancing, we have been operating at a huge loss due to reduced footfall and cancelled appointments and it will be a few weeks before government grants kick in. 

Having survived a devastating fire just over a year ago with your help, we are just about back on our feet but are now facing an uncertain few months ahead as our usual income from summer weddings, holidays and vintage festivals has literally disappeared in a matter of days as events are cancelled or pushed back. 

We'd love you to get involved with our #payitforward campaign and invest in our hand-crafted clothing and sewing workshops at special discounted rates (as well as additional treats) to redeem in happier times ahead. This will help our cash flow, enable us to develop our e-commerce and help us to keep supporting our creative suppliers. 

Thanks so much, big love and sanitised air hugs to you all,

Teresa and Suzanne xxx
