‘Please vote for us. This really would make our year. It would be a nice little boost at such a difficult time.’

Claire, a mum-of-one from Gosport, appealed for help last year after lockdown restrictions saw her have to close her business - and put its future in jeopardy.

A GoFundMe page raised more than £1,000 to help the cafe, however this is still short of its £2,000 target.

To vote go to hants.ankle-biters.co.uk/ by Sunday, February 28.
