All in One Company supports local business

Posted on: 15/10/2012

Like most manufacturing businesses we end up with leftover materials once we have created your personalised onesies. As responsible corporate citizens we were looking for a good way of disposing of these off-cuts. Ideally we wanted an environmentally friendly solution that also had a positive impact on our local community. We then came across a company called Pots and Pancakes, an award winning paint your own pottery cafe in North Shields, near Newcastle, that had featured on BBC’s Dragon’s Den & Create & Craft TV. They offered the perfect solution, putting our unwanted but wonderful fabrics to good use. So Pots and Pancakes have been able to take our off-cuts and use them in their craft classes to make rugs, mats, and other craft projects. We love the idea that we have reduced our waste and provided a benefit to one of our neighbours, and we look forward to seeing some really creative results from Pots & Pancakes! Pictured below is a selection of the creations produced by Pots and Pancakes. We would also like to take this opportunity to thank them for their twitter mentions, also shown below.
