‘Proof that one treatment, one pair of hands and the chance to breath deeply can rewrite the script’
In Conversation With: Beatrice & Clement, Founders of Vigour & Skills
Cotswold locals Clement and Beatrice wanted to find a way to showcase the work of their neighbouring creative communities, to celebrate their craftsmanship and help to share their stories with customers across the country. Beatrice, Co-founder of Vigour & Skills, shares the story of their platform and their mission “to re-shape how we shop, with a focus on sustainability, storytelling, and craftsmanship.”
