Grayshott Pottery donates Village Hall ceramic tableware

Grayshott Pottery donates Village Hall ceramic tableware
Phil Bates & Chris Greenaway from Grayshott Pottery and Stephen Penny, Barbie McSean, Graham Pullen and Peter Budd from the Village Hall choose their new ceramic tableware

Grayshott Village Hall is set to receive around 800 pieces of new ceramic tableware thanks to Grayshott Pottery's Community Fund. The fund, that was set up 2 years ago when Grayshott Pottery became an Employee Trust, is intended to sponsor 'local causes' and this week the Executive Committee for the Village Hall met with Chris Greenaway and Phil Bates at Grayshott Pottery, to choose the new set of ceramics.

Stephen Penny, Chairman of the Village Hall Management Committee, said, "The generosity of Grayshott Pottery in providing a range of stylish table ware has put 'the icing on the cake' to the recently refurbished kitchen at the Village Hall. It will also benefit many Village organisations for years to come. I am delighted that such valuable support has come from a Grayshott based business."

Chris Greenaway, Sales and Marketing Director, for Grayshott Pottery, said " It is a real pleasure for our business to help out in this way. We felt that this was a great cause and we hope that all the local community will be able to benefit whenever a local celebration or function is held at Grayshott Village Hall. We expect that the hall will be able to take delivery of the ceramics, which is our 'Tenmoku' design, around the end of July".
