Here is what a few of our supporters have to say about “Made in Britain”:

Bristol Blue Glass
“We are proud to be part of the Made in Britain campaign which highlights traditional British manufacturing. Bristol Blue Glass is truly “Made in Britain”, and we want everyone in Britain to know that. Bristol has been the centre of the glassmaking since the 18th century and we are proud to carry on that tradition.”

Emma Bridgewater
“We were really proud to take part last year and are equally excited about this year’s Made in Britain Campaign”

Natasha Goodfellow, BBC Homes and Antiques Magazine
We first heard about the Civic Trust’s Made in Britain campaign last summer when it was in its early stages and it felt like a very natural fit for Homes & Antiques magazine. We have always celebrated British craftsmanship and longevity in our pages. As a magazine, we also felt that a Made in Britain campaign would strike a chord with our readers, so we ran a comprehensive article, about the challenges facing the industry today and the manufacturers making a go of it – the real success stories. The response to the feature was amazing. We were right to think that it was an emotive subject and we had letters from people both celebrating British makers and also from those feeling disenfranchised by the number of imports on our High Street.  We also ran a reader survey with the issue and by a long way; Made in Britain was the favourite feature in the magazine. Our website has been visited by thousands of people who have showed their support for the Civic Trust’s campaign.
