Welcome to Projects Boutique Emporium

Hi pals, I’m Cassi. I set up PROJECTS a few yea

Hi pals, I’m Cassi.

I set up PROJECTS a few years ago- for a number of reasons, mostly because I’ve always been excited and proud of the huge collective of creatives here in Winchester- and wanted to provide a hub where local people could sell their wares, network, meet, and learn new skills. Nearly three years on, through (and not quite out the other side) of a global pandemic... I’ve learnt a little more about what‘s important to me.

I’m sure i’m not alone here.

I was very lucky as a child- living with a single non-working parent to receive free school meals. (It was all about the puddings....yum!!!!)

As an adult I still count myself lucky to be able to do a job that I love, and still put good food on the table everyday.

Coronavirus has hit us hard, as a business...but nowhere near as hard as it has hit many others....I still think we are very lucky.

So its time to do our bit- to step in when others haven’t. We will (whether we raise our target or not) offer free lunch bags to ALL school age children Mon-Fri during half term. We will do this anyway- but could really do with your help. (Link in Bio)

Anything you can pledge to help us towards our target will be very gratefully received.

Biggest virtual hug, Cassi and The Projects Team xxx

Interpreting the law has become our new favourite

Interpreting the law has become our new favourite game!! Are we a cafe inside a shop or a shop inside a cafe? Either way we think it’s best to err on the side of caution and will be wearing masks all day every day from now on!! All we ask is that you do too. If you’re drinking/dining in with us you may remove your mask at the table or if you sit outside. Let’s keep each other safe.

Spent today chasing up some much needed clarification on Boris’s announcement- and although it looks like we’re going to be able to open our store soon- it looks like we are still not going to see some of our loved ones for a while... One of our traders @wildthingsdesign is wanting to help us stay in touch by selling packs of 5 cards for £10 with 100% of the profits going to @winchester_nightshelter and @nhscharitiestogether .
Please see the link in her bio @wildthingsdesign or DM us for more info 🌈 .
