Ella McIntosh, alongside 3 other makers and keynote speaker Patrick Grant from the Great British Sewing Bee, was recently invited by the Heritage Crafts Association and Comino Foundation to host pewter workshops for their Endangered Craft Day event at Ladybridge High School in Bolton.

“Through our Endangered Craft Day, Comino Foundation and Heritage Crafts seek to inspire and inform young people from North West Comino Consortium schools about the possibilities of a craft career, as well as the benefits of integrating making into their everyday lives, no matter what career they pursue”
