<div>Hey there, amazing people! 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> I’m Tasha, the face behind The Vegan Patty Lady — a small but mighty business bringing delicious, Jamaican-inspired vegan patties to the UK! 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> First of all, <strong>THANK YOU</strong>. Your support since launching this GoFundMe in April 2024 has meant the world. Because of YOU, in just 12 months, we’ve: 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>✅ Moved into a commercial kitchen to scale production 
</div>
<div>✅ Expanded into 7+ locations including a national retailer
</div>
<div>✅ Won multiple awards and pitch competitions 
</div>
<div>✅ Sold thousands of patties — and counting! 
</div>
<div>✅ Secured a national retail listing (announcement pending!) We’ve come so far because of you — and now we need your help again. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We’re at a critical turning point. Demand for our patties is growing fast. Not only have we secured our first national retailer, but more opportunities are opening up — and we’re ready to meet them! But in order to grow, we must urgently move into a larger kitchen facility by the end of June 2025. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> This next move will give us the space and capacity we need to meet retail demand and grow into food service. But to make it happen, we need to secure: 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> •	A new kitchen with enough space for our machinery 
</div>
<div> •	Three months’ deposit to secure the facility 
</div>
<div> •	The right equipment and storage to scale effectively 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> We haven’t pushed this GoFundMe in a while, but now it’s crunch time. We are rallying hard for this final stretch, and every share, prayer, and donation truly helps. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> We’re already so close — thanks to your generosity and a £20K investment from Forbes Family Group, we’re now just £10K away from hitting our £40K goal. So if you’ve already given, thank you from the bottom of our hearts! And if you’re not able to donate, we’d be so grateful if you could share this with your networks. We’re doing something incredible here — not just building a business, but creating space for flavourful, culturally rooted, plant-based food in the mainstream. And we’re doing it together. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> Let’s get The Vegan Patty Lady into the kitchen she deserves. With all my love and gratitude, Tasha aka The Vegan Patty Lady xx
</div>
