Matthew Willson represented England in one of the world’s more extreme competitions.
Matthew was one of eight members of the England team competing at the Skydiving World Championships at Teuge, Netherlands.
They came up against more experienced sky-divers and finished tenth.
Matthew has been skydiving for eight years after being inspired by his father, Mark Willson.
Matthew said: “My dad has been skydiving for years and when I was 16 I used to go to Langar Airfield and try it for myself.
“I have done a lot of events nationally in the past. It was an honour to get selected for my country in something that I love.”
He said the international competition added an extra adrenaline rush that had been lost over the years.
“When you have jumped out of a plane a few times there isn’t the same nerves or tension that you get when you do it for the first time,” Matthew said.
“However, when it’s a competition there’s an added rush because there’s a bit of pressure to do something for your country.
“The main thing I like about the sport is that it’s different.
“I’ve always wanted to do something that isn’t one of your everyday activities.”
The team performed in different formations in various disciplines.
Matthew was selected after impressing at the national championships and is hoping to get more international opportunities.
“We didn’t realise we had qualified for the world championships until a short time before the event, so we didn’t get the chance to do proper training,” he said.
“Given a bit more time, hopefully we can build on our performances and be better by the time we reach the next championships.”

Pennine have been manufacturing quality traditional shooting socks and scarfs since 1850. Stepped in tradition, Pennine were looking for a brochure that oozed quality, complimented their traditional manufacturing process and appealed to their clients.
Using uncoated paper for the text, gave this brochure an ambience of quality and tradition, allowing the client to experience a real feeling for their products. The raw aroma of ink on uncoated paper enhances your sense and draws images of bygone quality traditional manufacturing.
The cover is the jewel in the crown. I very simply idea of less is more. Only using foil and a textured material, created a brochure that instantly draws your attention. The claret cord embossed cover material is from the GF Smith Colourplan range, and gives the brochure a sense of modesty, and instantly brings to mind quality, as per the products illustrated in this beautifully crafted brochure.
If you have a product or service that needs that something different, lifting it above the competition, talk to us, and we can offer array of different options to suit every budget.
Not our words, but the words of our client, and who are we to disagree!
Working with DeVol, a manufacturer of handmade and hand painted, unique bespoke kitchens, we printed their latest ‘Classic English Kitchen’ Brochure. Like DeVol, we only use the finest materials coupled with the latest print technology, we produce quality print that draws people’s attention and creates a lasting impression.
The pictures below show various spreads of the brochure, which was printed on a FSC® uncoated stock.
On receipt of the brochures, our client emailed us saying ‘I just wanted to say a massive thank you to both of you and your team for another brilliant brochure. It looks absolutely perfect and the attention to detail and colour consistency is brilliant’.
If your current printer is not ‘absolutely perfect’ or is lacking that all-important attention to detail and colours are not consistent, please get in touch and we will be happy to listen and help where we can. Feel free to arrange a site visit, as it’s a real treat to walk through our pressroom, and see our skilled craftsmen at their workstations, the smell of ink, varnish, and paper, and to see beautifully created brochures being produced by people who take great pride in their work.
Here are a few pictures of our staff enjoying their Christmas 2014.
