This time of year is full of food, warmth, and togetherness. In between the celebrations and gifts, the festive season has a way of highlighting just how fortunate some are, and at the same time, how many others are facing incredibly tough circumstances. 

That’s why we are excited to support The Livingstone Initiative for this month’s supper club. Belinda, a local and loyal customer of ours, founded the organisation in 2012 with the aim of creating a better life for young girls in Chama, Zambia.

Most of our Christmas products are available to purchase online, however the order form below has an extended range which you can order via email. Including the beautiful Dolce and Gabanna  x Fiasconaro panettone in their tins, so elegant you will keep forever. 

Today felt like winter, properly chilly... a sharp intake of breath as I walked outside, dark by five, candles lit, a roaring fire, hunker down to a different tempo. The summers are so very different. It feels like moments ago we were surrounded by half term happiness, running around in shorts and t-shirts, out enjoying the beach and sea. Now the estuary is stripped of the pontoon, just a lonely oyster boat, the ferry, a few fishing boats and odd people around. The light on the water is mesmerising. I love the changes.
