Dreya Glass
Dreya discovered Glass whilst studying at Falmouth art college. Falling instantly in love with the look and the process of working with glass, “Its colour, its reflections and translucent quality instantly captured my heart. To me it has a similar quality to water. It is enigmatic you can look at it, or through it”. Having competed professionally in the kitesurfing world tour Glass is now the focus of her passion, where she continues to express her love of the ocean and Cornwall in her art work.

Nearly New(quay) Clothing Company
Claire’s ethos at the Nearly New(quay) clothing company revolves around sustainability & recycling, selling quality branded preloved ladies wear. Clothing manufacture is one of the highest polluting industries, and the standard lifecycle of a ‘fast’ fashion product can be as little as 6 wears before it is sent to landfill. Claire’s business will provide an outlet for women to buy preowned, quality ladies wear, with brands such as Boden, Laura Ashley, Monsoon, White Stuff and more, thus extending the lifecycle of the garment. These brands are classic pieces that can remain in a lady’s wardrobe for many years, as they are better made and do not date. You can browse the Nearly New(quay) clothing range on their Facebook page: www.facebook.com/NearlyNewquayClothingBoutique/
Killa Walls
Killa Walls is not your normal seaside gallery, but a place to find an eclectic mix of urban, street and contemporary art all created by west country artists. The aim of the gallery is to offer great art at affordable prices in styles not yet well represented in Cornwall. Also home to the studio of Emily Donald, a local Newquay street artist who exhibits in galleries all over the UK and regularly live paints at large street art events.

Chuko Kids
Lia is originally from Brazil, and she was inspired to move to Cornwall so that she might be closer to her husband’s family. The big move became a priority for Lia following the news of the coronavirus pandemic and her recent cancer diagnosis, which prompted her move to happen a little faster than planned.
Lia quickly noticed that Newquay was in need of a shop for children, and having worked in customer service and with children for most of her life, she was inspired to open Chuko Kids. Lia truly believes that children’s clothes and shoes should last as long as they are needed, so she exclusively stocks items from brands that look great, are practical, functional and affordable but (most importantly) are sustainable and eco-friendly.
Chuko Kids offers a 10% discount to all Newquay residents, and also offers in-store feet measuring, VIP shopping experiences and free same-day delivery for Newquay and the surrounding areas.
You can shop the range online (chukokids.co.uk) or by coming to visit Liane’s new store on the Killacourt.
