🖤 The Castle That Rebellion Could Build 🖤
A message from Amy at Rebel Artist UK & Crafting with Purpose...
There’s a place.
Not just a house. Not just a building.
A castle.
It’s not ours — yet.
But it could be. And with your help, we might just get there.
This is more than a dream. It’s a tangible, physical space that would allow everything we've built, creatively, charitably, and communally, to grow and thrive under one roof.
Right now, we’re working hard to raise the funds needed to secure the building.
And we’re inviting you to be part of it.
🖤 Rebel Artist HQ
Rebel Artist has already been running for several years, designing, creating, hosting events, and supporting makers.
This castle would allow it to expand into a full creative and event space, with:
Monthly craft fayres
Indoor car boot sales
Paint parties
Seasonal workshops and maker markets
A home base for product creation, order fulfilment, and commissions
This is the business that funds the movement. It brings people together, uplifts independent creators, and makes rebellion something you can hold in your hands.
🍬 Rebel Kitchen
The castle will also become home to Rebel Kitchen, the relaunch of the award-winning artisan brand once known as Amy Claire’s.
Once the kitchen is officially registered, Rebel Kitchen will return with handmade fudge, cakes, and artisan confectionery, sold through events, markets, and pre-orders.
💜 Crafting with Purpose (Registered Charity)
Our charity Crafting with Purpose will also be based at the castle, where we’ll have space to:
Continue our Crafting for the Community sessions, creating items to support local hospitals, hospices, schools, social services, care homes, and emergency services
Run our Crafting for You sessions, open craft groups offering creativity, company, and beginner-friendly support
This part of the work will always remain not-for-profit.
It's about connection, resilience, and creating something that matters... together.
🖤 The Rebel Hub
The beating heart of the castle.
The Rebel Hub will become a safe and inclusive space for creativity, community, and growth. It’s where everything converges... the social side of the business, the workshops, the ideas still forming.
We're exploring the possibility of future life skills sessions... sewing, budgeting, practical resilience, and more, alongside regular events that bring people together in meaningful, creative ways.

We don’t have the castle yet.
But we’ve built the vision.
The plans are in place.
And brick by brick, we’re getting closer.
This is the future we’re fighting for... and you are part of it.
Amy
🖤
