Family firm's generous donation of custom-printed face coverings

You won’t have any trouble spotting our reporters when they head out to cover jobs in the post Covid-19 era after a generous donation from a county company.

Family Threads, run by Chris and Lisa Grant, have sent us face masks emblazoned with the Northamptonshire Telegraph logo for our reporters to wear when they are out and about.

In a letter sent to us, Chris wrote: “After watching the videos of reporters out and about, it made me think you probably need some decent face coverings.

“These are not only comfy but will also let people who you are talking to know who you are and who you represent straight away.”

The Telegraph aren’t the only people locally to benefit from Family Threads’ generosity.

Kettering General Hospital and their #WeCARE team reached out for face coverings needed for their non-clinical staff.

And Family Threads sent out 50 custom-printed face coverings with the NHS logo on the front.

The face coverings are just the latest items designed and printed by the Great Oakley-based company.

The company’s printing experience stretches back to 2001 and since 2005 they entered the world of CD and DVD duplication and that has now evolved into their current merchandise operation.

Family Threads only use premium products to print with from high quality textiles to top end ceramics.

The majority of products are made to order and those that are pre-designed are dispatched no later than 24 hours after the order has been placed.

Anything custom printed with a specific artwork designed will be dispatched no later than 48 hours after artwork approval of the order.
