Finally, the Sketch Design Studio is up and running!

We have had a busy few months juggling work, decoration and opening a new studio and on top of that, charity work too! Hectic, but we are finally there.

We are currently settling in to our new premises which is on Ledbury High street, Herefordshire and it's looking very smart if we do say so ourselves! However, this could not have been achieved without the blood, sweat and tears from our family and friends… huge thank you to all of you!
Take a look at our photos to see what we have been getting up to…



As for the charity work, our web designer Tom Hancock and Photographer Thom Williams have achieved a great feat by completing the 'Three Peak Challenge' on the 18th/19th August. This involves climbing the highest mountain in Scotland (Ben Nevis), England (Scafell Pike) and Wales (Snowdon) within 24hours…. and it certainly was not a walk in the park! The chosen charity is a foundation called The Knock On Effect - a local group raising money for a range of cancer charities started by a young girl called Rosie Kilburn during her own fight against cancer. Rosie's sadly lost her battle last year but the foundation continues to be run by her family and friends. This year would have been Rosie's 20th Birthday and their aim is to raise £20,000. The sketch boys, joined by Nick Beresford-Poole, Steve Kyle, Sophie Wilesmith, Ben Streames, Sam Meek and most importantly driver James Batley managed to complete the challenge in an incredible 22hours 55 minutes raising over £2000 for TKOE, a massive congratulations to them all!

The Sketch boys have just about recovered from achy limbs and are in the new studio along with Graphic Designer Hayley Beresford-Poole, so if you're passing pop in and have a look.
