Hi my name is Gavin and I'm trying to raise funds for my partner Shelley. After recently turning 40 she wants to start her own business.

Shelley has been working in retail for 23 years, she is a grafter and a force to be reckoned with once she sets her mind to something. Shelley has always been very creative; she will often make and sell things as a hobby however she has decided to take the plunge and give up her career so she can pursue her creative talents as a business.

I just want her to be happy so I'd really like to help by gifting her a proper workspace so she has somewhere comfortable to work. Nothing fancy just a desk, a computer and some more materials.

She jokes it's a midlife crisis so I'd love to help her see she can do anything she sets her mind to.
