The award-winning shop in 'hidden treasure' location selling items not seen before

The owner of a 'hidden treasure' Nottinghamshire shop has opened up about his success after being recognised with a national award. David Humphreys, who has a background of 25 years in manufacturing engineering, said his life changed for the better when he set up his business.

The 59-year-old, from Chilwell, who owns Created By Hand at Strelley Hall, said: "It does not feel like I have worked a day since I (left) my last job. It is true what they say - if you find something you love you will never work a day in your life.

"And I absolutely felt that since I have started the shop. It has been incredibly hard work and stress at times but I would not have changed it", said Mr Humphreys.
