BUSINESS NEWS<br />

You might have seen in the<br />

window of The Laurels<br />

recently, the seriously fun<br />

new Wallplayper collection<br />

designed in <strong>Lewes</strong> by Emma<br />

Carlow and printed in the<br />

UK. It’s inspired by her own<br />

childhood, old school textbooks<br />

and vintage toys; you<br />

won’t want to draw all over<br />

your walls but you might want<br />

to (ever so neatly) colour them<br />

in. [wallplayper.com]<br />

On the move this month, after 20 years in<br />

Cliffe, Riverside Flowers are relocating to the<br />

top of Station Street and, in the Needlemakers,<br />

the Good Times Home Store has moved into<br />

the space vacated by From Victoria (who, you’ll<br />

remember, recently moved upstairs).<br />

<strong>Lewes</strong> Women in Business, the group for<br />

professional women with<br />

independent businesses<br />

in the district, recently<br />

celebrated their first birthday<br />

and are now offering<br />

paid membership. They’re<br />

launching a new website<br />

with a members’ directory<br />

later this month and, with<br />

over 220 businesswomen in<br />

their Facebook group, visit<br />

leweswomeninbusiness.<br />

co.uk to find out about the<br />

benefits of joining them.<br />

Finally, the entries for <strong>Lewes</strong> District Business<br />
