Morris & Co. Partners with QEST for Black Friday

Following the launch of its digital platform, Morris & Co. is approaching Black Friday with a different attitude. The British wallpaper, paint, fabric and homewares brand, and original company founded by William Morris, is donating 15% of all sales made from Friday 29 November to Sunday 1 December to QEST.

QEST shares an affinity with Morris & Co., resonating with William Morris’s dedication — as a Victorian pioneer and champion of craftspeople — to maintaining and progressing the skill and joy of hand-making.

Deborah Pocock LVO, CEO, QEST, says, “We are delighted to continue our partnership with Sanderson Design Group through this latest initiative with Morris & Co. With such closely aligned values to craftsmanship, we’re honoured to be their selected charity for Black Friday, helping us to support craftspeople across the UK.”

Claire Vallis, Design Director, Morris & Co., adds, “Morris & Co. is dedicated to craftsmanship and honouring not only our 160-year heritage but uplifting those working in the British craft industry today. We’re so happy to be able to put our own Morris & Co. spin on Black Friday, celebrating heritage design while supporting craftspeople of the future. As the original company founded by William Morris, it is our duty to uphold his values, and we couldn’t think of a better way to do it than by donating a portion of our sales to QEST to support the incredible work they do.”

The proceeds from this partnership will go towards QEST’s work to support and bolster the work of individuals across a wide range of craft disciplines.
