Julia Davis has been described as mad as a box of frogs (in a good way) by The Curious Creative Club. She definitely embraces everything that life can throw at you with a curiosity and lust for life that is infectious, but it's her sense of community and desire to share that is overwhelmingly apparent when you meet her.
Julia started The Unity Yard when she started selling plants from the yard (attached to the large warehouse space that was once a fabric mill in Holmfirth) during covid when she could no longer work in the opticians.
The warehouse space became available for rent, and without hesitation, she took it on.
You would naturally assume that it's a Community Interest Company (CIC) when you enter the gorgeous huge doors but it's not, because the reality of making a CIC work is more difficult than it should be.
In this episode Nina and Julia talk about Julia's journey to The Unity Yard, what the space means to people today and how Julia has achieved what she set out to achieve but how, keeping that going, can be the hardest part of the journey.
