Play cafe in Fareham is up for awards - but needs you to vote
A PLAY cafe in Fareham has been nominated for three awards – and is calling for the public to show their support and vote.
Sweet Peas Play Cafe, in West Street, has made it to the finals of the Little Ankle Biters awards for the best family friendly place to eat, best children’s party venue and best local independent business in Hampshire.
Owner Claire White, who opened the cafe in 2018 said: ‘We've been nominated now we just need your votes to win.
‘Please vote for us. This really would make our year. It would be a nice little boost at such a difficult time.’
Claire, a mum-of-one from Gosport, appealed for help last year after lockdown restrictions saw her have to close her business - and put its future in jeopardy.
A GoFundMe page raised more than £1,000 to help the cafe, however this is still short of its £2,000 target.
The cafe, which features role play areas for young children, is currently closed under the third lockdown rules.
To vote go to hants.ankle-biters.co.uk/ by Sunday, February 28.
