Based in Blackheath, London, United Kingdom, Hand Made Food is a catering company that focuses on social and environmental ways of running its business while at the same time emphasizing taste because after all, that's what brings people to the business in a lot of respects. But it doesn't hurt, of course, that the Mayor of Lewisham gave them an award for excellence in Environmental Practice.
The small business will set up shop temporarily at Cockpit Arts' Summer Open Studios, adding to the community of social enterprise, business incubation and what Cockpit Arts calls "designer-makers." Hand Made was founded in 1994 by Fergus Clague who coined the term "small-living business," from which the title of this piece draws.
