“I wish I could have a shop front where people could walk past and see in but this spaces works for now. Although I'm pretty hidden away at the back of this space its nice that everyone knows each other, we are like a family. People come in and chat to me when they are getting a coffee next door. ”

“I pay rent to the money transfer guys who are the lead tenants of this space. It's really difficult to get commercial space in this area but I managed to negotiate a good price with them.”
