Welcome to my website (and 2025!). Please see the news section for upcoming events
Happy New Year! I hope 2025 will be a good one.
I'll update my 2025 events on here as and when they are confirmed...

In recent years, selling into the European Union from the UK has become more complex and on 13 December this year a new regulation comes into force across the whole EU. GPSR or General Product Safety Regulations are to protect EU consumers from potentially unsafe goods from outside the EU, and increase transparency around manufacturing and safety. Among other things, this regulation requires all non-EU sellers to appoint an EU Representative resident within the EU who ensures compliance with regulations for all goods.
At present I do not have such a representative and as I have very few sales to the EU each year it's not going to be financially viable for me to comply with all the regulations and appoint one. Therefore, sadly, I am suspending all shipping to EU countries and NI as of 3 December 2024.
Please Note: If you have an urgent deadline, please do send me a message, so I can advise you whether I can meet it.
