Fuzzi is a vibrant new Social Enterprise that combines quality goods with key ethical values and a strong social mission.
Tinklertastic - Made in Winchester!
We sell a range of delicious food, stylish clothes, quality gifts and homewear, bringing a host of unique brands to Winchester, all of which are either locally made, fairly traded, organic, recycled or produced more sustainably in some other way.
Importantly, we will also contribute to the local community, by supporting local suppliers and manufacturers, and through the Fuzzi Fund. All our surplus profits go into this charitable fund to help support local people, communities, companies and organisations who engage in projects, education and awareness events about sustainability.
The shop and website will host a wide range of information about how we might consider living more sustainably, and to demonstrate what products are available to help us do so. We won’t preach to anyone however – we respect your right to make up your own mind, we simply invite you to come and find out for yourself, and we think you’ll be pleasantly surprised!

And who are ‘we’ you may ask? Well, we are husband and wife Andy and Hannah Mintram, and we have been working on Fuzzi since our honeymoon in 2009! We strive to live sustainably and hope to encourage others to do the same but importantly, we recognise that we’re far from perfect and are learning all the time. Through Fuzzi we aim to promote discussion, increase education, challenge habits and preconceptions, encourage new behaviour, and help people make informed decisions.
Above all, we aim to do all of this in a positive way. To show what is possible, to encourage and not criticise, to educate and not denigrate. And to have fun… never forget that!
We look forward to welcoming you to our shop! Come and get a Fuzzi feeling!
