We know that there's a wealth of talent within the HW community, and many students set up side-hustles during Lockdown selling the art and craft-pieces they were making.
Christmas is hard enough but this year has been more difficult than most, and we know some people might be struggling financially. That's why we've looked for ways we could help by supporting student-run businesses in time for Christmas!
Our online Christmas Fair is a new project we’ve never tried before and we're super excited! Over the seven days of the fair, we'll showcase student talent from across Heriot-Watt and promote unique and hand-made items they have available for sale.
We really hope you’ll enjoy browsing through our virtual “stalls” and get some inspiration for gifts for your friends and family. Each stall has its own online shop where you can purchase their products, so you can rest assured that they are handled safely.
See a stall you REALLY like? Give them a follow and tag them in posts with what you've bought using their @ and #WattmasFair
Merry Christmas everyone!
