JELLYCAT UPDATE - WE ARE NOT WORTHY 😞

So many of you have been asking when we will be getting a good selection of Jellycat stock in again, and after countless promises from the company that all will be back to normal in the near future, we have today received the sad news that ourselves, and many other small independent retailers, will no longer be Jellycat stockists due to their 'Brand Elevation Strategy'.

This decision is final, and cannot be negotiated.

This is obviously extremely disappointing, having supported the company for over 2 decades, since they first started up.

It's a sad day that we can no longer be referred to as 'The Jellycat Shop'. It was always so lovely to see you all running through the door, full of excitement, ready to find your new Jellycat character.

Don't worry though, we still have lots of beautiful soft toys to cuddle, and some interesting new lines to come in the near future!

We are closing our doors again, sadly it just isn't worth being open at the moment. If anyone needs anything, if you get in touch with us, we could open by appointment. Hopefully this situation won't be for too long. Stay safe everyone, look forward to seeing you all again soon.
