THE UPDATE WE NEVER WANTED TO POST
FRIDAY 9 JUNE 2023 (by Anna)
​
What can we say? We have made the heartbreaking decision to close indefinitely from Monday 12th June. We've kept our doors open for as long as we can, but sadly right now it is not possible for us to continue being open for business on a daily basis.
We promised you an update on Bex and you've probably noticed that we have been very quiet for some time on Social Media.
​
I'm afraid it isn't good news. It's actually really heartbreaking news and we are trying to come to terms with this - although honestly, we're not sure how you come to terms with being given 6-12 months to live at aged 40. Bex's bowel cancer (an absolute b@stard of a rare cancer called BRAF) has defied the latest round of chemo and has spread to yet another location and Bex is not eligible for surgery. She has a couple more treatment options to extend life; she's currently on the first one which was patient-pioneered by Dame Deborah James, who had the exact same cancer.
We're clearly heartbroken by the situation and having to close the business we love, at least for now.
​
All current orders will be fulfilled as usual.
I'm clearly biased as she's my little sister but I couldn't be more proud of the human being that is Bex. She's an amazing sister, daughter, wife, mother and friend - loved by everyone who meets her. And I know you all agree that she is an amazing designer too.
Thank you all so much for your support and your beautiful messages.
