CHANNEL 5 FILMING WITH OURGLASS

Ho Ho Ho ....we've had great fun with the "Milkshake Monkey" from Channel 5....if you watch pre-school programmes you'll be enjoying the Monkey's visit to OurGlass (It's often repeated!). Directed by Danny Peacock (Actor with a pedigree including The Young Ones, Quadrophenia & Comic Strip)we had an exciting day putting this hilarious episode together.

The series also features other Cockington Craftworkers and attractions around the Bay.

GAS PRICES

We've all seen (at least in the UK) a dramatic rise in the price of domestic gas...in terms of commercial gas provision, the situation is worse! As a business we have had to endure two consecutive gas tariff annual increases in the region of 40% In cumulative terms, this makes the ongoing viability of our business precarious. This coming financial year (commencing April ) will be an extremely demanding one and your support, more than ever before,is very much appreciated. Thank You.

ARTSBASE AWARD

It caught us by surprise but we were astonished and honoured to be presented with a second consequetive (2007 & 2008) "ARTSBASE" Craft & Design award....what's especially pleasing is that we were nominated by visitors/customers without our knowledge and the judges then considered us to be the best!!...a big THANK YOU to those involved. We'll feature more about the event as we collect more details.

WORK PLACEMENT

We have recently provided Work Placement for second year students from Plymouth College of Art & Design. If you would like further information concerning Placements, then please contact us.
