BBC Wiltshire presenters Matthew Smith and Mark O’Donnell did a comprehensive feature on Dents when we moved premises at the beginning of the month, so we thought we’d share some of it with you:
1. Annie Weston of BBC Wiltshire talks to Robert Yentob, Dents’ chairman, about the secrets of the company’s success, and the reasons for the move.
2. Despite local job losses and recessionary times, Dents is moving into bigger premises after sixty years at its present location. Deborah Moore, Dents’ Creative Director, speaks about the move, and Annie Weston interviews Sally Norris, who has been making Dents gloves for forty years.
3. Tony Nicklin, chairman of the Warminster Town Plan Working Group, explains how Dents’ move came about, and the positive impact it will have on Warminster and the local economy, including the long awaited arrival of the Waitrose supermarket, scheduled for completion by December.
4. Annie Weston speaks to Deborah Moore about Dents gloves, and we hear more from Sally Norris, including answers to questions you’ve probably wondered about yourself, such as, “don’t you get nervous making gloves for Prince Charles?”, and “when you’re out, can you always recognize a pair of Dents gloves?”
