If you’ve ever sat in my chair, trusted me with your first piercing, added something new to your collection, or even just stopped by for a chat, you’ll know that my work has always been about more than just piercings. It’s about connection, trust, and creating a space where people feel comfortable being themselves.

Right now, I’m facing something a bit different. I’m preparing for surgery that will happen in 5 weeks and will take me out of the studio for around 10 weeks. While it’s something I need to do for my health, it also means stepping away from the work and the community I care so much about.

As a self-employed professional body piercer, my hands are my livelihood. If I’m not able to work, there’s no income coming in. Unlike traditional jobs, there’s no sick pay or safety net, just a sudden stop while the bills and everyday costs keep moving.

I’m hoping to raise £4,000 to help cover essentials like rent, bills, food, and the basics I’ll need while I recover. This support would give me the space to heal properly so I can come back to doing what I love, safely and at full strength.

Supporting this isn’t just helping me financially, it’s helping me get back to the studio, back to creating, and back to being part of the community we’ve built together.

If you’re able to donate, I’m incredibly grateful. And if not, sharing this page or even just sending a bit of support means more than you know.

Thank you for being part of this journey with me. I can’t wait to be back with you all soon.
