Made By Britain Launch - About Paul Fletcher Photography

We were pleased to ask Paul to photograph this fashion shoot. Pauls portfolio is extensive, extending from business and corporate to weddings and events.  

The photo shoot was taken outside Hove Town Hall, Hove, where the Olympic torch flame is expected to go past, next year, 16 July 2012, on its way to London 2012.

The Town hall is not the most glamorous location, but Paul managed to capture a great range of photography on the day of the MP, Mike Weatherley modelling ranges.

Made By Britain Launch

A Sussex Trust has joined a team invited by the Government to showcase Britain's design and manufacturing capabilities.

Mike Weatherley MP, representing Hove & Portslade chose The Fashion Trust,  currently one of only 40 businesses nationally asked to showcase at Made By Britain, which has just been launched by the Associate Parliamentary Manufacturing Group in a Parliamentary search of the very best of British Design & Manufacturing.

The Fashion Trust has been formed to promote fashion design and manufacturing from the region and encourage exports, is being pitched against British icons such as Fish Fingers, Sheffield steel surgical blades and Rolls Royce engines.

Vince Cable, The Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills and President of the Board of Trade,  unveiled his ‘Made By Britain’ campaign, an initiative that he hopes to highlight not only design but manufacturing excellence in the UK.

Stated Cable…

 "With the Olympics bringing so much attention to Britain, this is a fantastic opportunity to show the rest of the world that we make world-beating products."

“We are still the world's seventh biggest manufacturer. Some of the world's most skilled designers, engineers and fabricators hail from this fair isle.”

The manufacturing industry generates 12% of Britain's GDP and the timing couldn’t be better for this 'Made By Britain' initiative for the British economy. Cable believes that the manufacturing industry is still associated with derelict factories and poorly-paid jobs by the British public. He is keen to use 'Made By Britain' as a platform to publicise Britain's manufacturing prowess.
