Heritage Craft Association

Soane is proud to sponsor a bursary with the Heritage Craft Association to help safeguard some of our most endangered British craft skills. Heritage Crafts is a national charity who support and promote heritage crafts in Britain. The training bursary is targeted at trainees and prospective trainees experiencing financial hardship and would otherwise be prevented from pursuing a craft career as a result of the cost. In 2024 the bursary was awarded to Elliot Walker, who specialises in mouth-blown glass. Elliot is attempting to incorporate the making of mouth-blown flat glass in his practice – a currently extinct craft in the UK.
