Jonathon said:

“I like putting the different pieces together and when I finish making a bag I am really proud. It makes me feel good.”

Each bag is constructed over several hours. His largest order was for 40 small bags for a craft retreat in Bedfordshire.

Jonathan has been helped in his business by Enterprising People In Ribble Valley whose remit is to assist people with business ideas.

John Hamer, Jonathan’s full-time carer for the last 11 years said:

“I think the work that Jonathan does is truly inspirational and he is so dedicated. He takes a great pride in every bag that he makes.”
