In The beginning

Hello, We're 3 sisters, Ellen, Cassie and Lily, and about 3 years ago, with no experience or qualification, we began our journey to create a Cafe/ Launderette in Stokes Croft, Bristol. It has been a challenge, and we're not there yet, but with a building under construction (well reconstruction) and a whole host of things bought to fill it, we thought we would share our story thus far with you. 
Well, first Ellen had this bright idea, that we all loved. Why not have a launderette with a cafe, where you could wait for you washing while have a cup of tea? I cannot tell when the hatched idea grew quite so quickly, it almost seamlessly went from a cool plan in the pipeline, to us forking out £500 for planning permission for our building. But however it happened, @thewell has been such a huge and exciting part of our lives, and we're so grateful to the help and support of friends and family, as well as our great team of handymen and workers, who are making this random wacky idea, a random wacky reality.
