Absolutely superb social enterprise moving to George Street in Edinburgh today. Fantastic support for local artist and creatives. Get in down there for a shop. Delighted for @scotdesignex, Lynzi and the team. @Firstport @SocEntScot @socinvestscot

Have you not heard?! We’re open tomorrow at 51 George Street.
We can’t wait to get back to putting money directly in the pockets of artists.

Feeling good with my use again mug, I got to the @CostaCoffee this a.m. The cup didn't fit under the machine, so the answer... Use a take away cup to fill my mug. 🤔

What a story at the 2nd #launchme workshop from @scotdesignex on the @Firstport investor programme. Well worth popping into their @GlasgowSEN or @SocEntEdinburgh stores. #socialenterprise scale up.
