The craft retailer, founded by Dragons’ Den star Sara Davies, has shut its Evesham store following the liquidation of the company behind the business. The closure has resulted in the loss of 16 jobs at the Evesham branch, along with 42 roles at the firm’s headquarters in Newton Aycliffe, County Durham.
