“Before that I was working as a florist from home while I brought my children up.
w they are grown I have to chance to grow my business and it now employs five people.
“I had links with the Wedding Place in Church Street for some time, doing displays for weddings and then the building became available and we have sort of swapped roles. It’s a vibrant area and there is a good variety of shops along here.
