Churchill China’s involvement with the jubilee celebrations in Singapore has been recognised at a special event hosted by the High Commissioner Anthony Phillipson, welcoming the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge as part of their Jubilee Tour.
By special invitation from the Commissioner, Glenn Ewart on behalf of Churchill was one of only 100 guests, each getting to meet both the Duke and Duchess. To mark the occasion Churchill designed and gifted the Royal couple with a commemorative plate, celebrating the Queens Jubilee. The meeting took place on the same day the Duke praised British collaborations in Singapore following a visit to a Rolls Royce factory. Glenn Ewart, Export Business Development Manager says of the meeting, “What a privilege to be invited to Eden Hall by the High Commissioner, Mr Anthony Phillipson to meet the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge on their historic Asia Pacific Tour. The making of this special plate, one of only 25, and its presentation to them, hopefully reminds Their Royal Highnesses of how far British industry stretches around the globe. The plate showcases the high quality Churchill produces and what great heritage Stoke-on-Trent has in the tableware industry. Stoke manufactured tableware still carries prestige, and no more so than halfway around the world”
The plate that Churchill China produced for the occasion is one of only 25 to be made and another was presented to the British Club in Singapore to be auction for local orphaned children’s charity Community Chest. Raising over $15,000 (approx £7,500) on the night, Churchill was delighted to have been able to contribute.
Sean Boyle, General Manager at the British Club who organised the fundraiser and acted as auctioneer to raise the funds said: “What a wonderful finale to the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee celebrations here at the British Club Singapore and the British community that live here.” Churchill China has been producing innovative and creative products for hositality tabletops for over 200 years.
