PROUD SPONSOR OF INDUSTRY NEWS INDUSTRYNEWS GLAZING COMPANY STEPS UP TO HELP LOCAL DANCE STUDIO » » IT’S NO SECRET THAT MORLEY Glass & Glazing’s MD Ian Short is passionate about dance, after storming to victory at last year’s Variety Strictly Ballroom event and raising over £20,000 for charity. Now, he is helping others ’find their feet’ by lending his support to local dance studio Freedom 2 Dance. Not only has Morley donated new glass for the frontage of the Castleford dance studio, along with child safe blinds, it is also sponsoring a 12-month scholarship for two dancers that will not only develop dance skills – in ballroom and Latin – but also help them in confidence and self-esteem, as well as improving other vital interpersonal skills. Ian Short, managing director of Morley Glass, said: “It gives me great pleasure to support this great opportunity for the children to dance, which also helps them develop great confidence and social skills. The passion all the staff have is humbling and as Morley Glass takes seriously the commitment to put back into local community and good causes I’m more than happy to support the fantastic opportunity.” www.morleyglass.co.uk Reaching out to the wider industry audience » » THE GGF GROUP - WHICH includes BFRC, FENSA, RISA, GGFi and Borough IT - has signed up to Insight Data’s unrivalled Fenestration database.
