This Mother's Day we are celebrating Surrey's Trailblazing Women in Business.

In both the 20th and 21st centuries we have seen an increase in female entrepreneurs who organise and manage enterprise, whilst being ambitious and motivated. These women are pioneers and are paving the way for future generations. The clear message is that you have the power to shape your reality no matter what your circumstances.

This proves that with an innovative idea and a bit of judicious planning, there really is no better time reinvent yourself and go it alone.

This weekend I had the pleasure of trying echo-friendly Merlot. A fabulous offering with delightful summer fruit aromas.
Seachange Wine is an innovative company who are combining great wine with ethical values. They have a strong determination to help with the current crisis regarding plastic pollution in our oceans.
The company have removed unnecessary plastics from each bottle and instead used plant-based closures and they have also used paper from certified sustainable forests. Finally if that hasn't impressed you enough, a donation from every bottle goes to marine charities.

Fantastic idea, fantastic wine. Definitely worth a try!

From Art to Scarf. Mixed media “Wildscape” painted onto gypsum before transforming the textures onto our really large silk squares, longs and skinnies. The gypsum creates a chalky palette of colours reminiscent of the fields and countryside of North Norfolk - the inspiration for the original art work.

Thankfully, all fitness studios have been given the go ahead to open from the 25th July. The government’s new guidelines relating to social distancing will mean that the way we used to work out will look a little different. However, that is a small price to pay. Here at The Surrey Splendour we have collated a list of just some the amazing classes, sports massages and gyms that are currently on offer.

So, if you are looking for a little inspiration to help get your fitness journey started then look no further.

For the past three months we have concentrated on survival of the service industries that are keeping the county fed in these unprecedented times. This week we are concentrating on the retail industry, online fashion houses such as Zara or Asos have seen the biggest decline in online shopping whilst the pandemic has been in full swing. But what about the independents? Head over to the website to see how they have adapted to the new style of shopping.

Another week and another directory of fabulous businesses that are keeping the county supplied with with fresh local produce. For me, this is proof that superheroes are not just a figment of Marvel’s imagination, they are real people on your high street. People that are willing to put the needs of others before their own. They are the independents.

Rye Cafe and Juice Bar

Rye Cafe and Juice Bar is a family-run business. With the help of Yasmine and Ethan, I like to offer a friendly and relaxing space for anyone to come and enjoy. I’ve been lucky enough to travel with my previous jobs, seeing and tasting new foods, learning from diverse cultures around the world. Our family home is now in Ashtead and we love it; the people, the village and environment around us.

We are currently cooking fresh hot meals daily, which are free for the over 70’s in Ashtead who are having to self isolate and we take donations for the hot meals over the phone. We have got other local businesses to assist in our aim, currently the butchers (Hammonds) next door and the green grocers (Garry’s) just along from me are selling me the produce at a discounted rate. We are just breaking even as of now, but I’m happy with that and we are more than happy to help out our local community.

We are also offering a home delivery menu (contact less delivery only), this is open to all who live in Ashtead, Leatherhead and Epsom. The menu is growing week to week and updates are being released on our page weekly.

We hope you enjoy Rye Cafe as much as we do. We care about your experience and are always open to feedback. Thank you, Robbie, Yasmine and Ethan

Laura Scott - Chef & Supper club host, Sourdough demos, Cookery workshops, Pop up micro baker

Laura Scott is a chef and supper club host who regularly runs sourdough workshops from her home in Epsom, Surrey. Due to the Covid-19 crisis, Laura has had to re-think her business and has switched her chef skills to running a micro bakery from her home which has become an instant hIt with Epsom locals. Orders are for pick up only from her home where a table has been set up under a covered porch displaying everyone’s weekly orders. Think freshly baked sourdough loaves, a vegan and vegetarian meal and soup of the week, delicious salad boxes and lots of scrumptious bakes. Hot cross buns sold out within a day of being added to social media! Laura’s bespoke shop can be found on her website. If you are a sourdough lover, be warned you will have to order your loaf two weeks in advance due to their popularity. Laura also donates several weekly bakes to doctors, nurses and NHS workers and she also offers discounts to NHS staff.
