Sharing this post about a petition to save Denby Pottery.
Consider signing - link below

We need your help to sign the "Support the Ceramics Industry" petition created by the campaign.

The Government Petitions Committee has now approved the petition for a review of the 'Supercharger' scheme to include ceramics manufacturers. The scheme provides relief to energy intensive businesses in the UK and inclusion in this would help cut soaring industrial energy costs and support ceramics businesses.

Whilst Denby’s future is still uncertain, we truly believe that if every person who has supported so far could sign, then this could make a huge difference for the UK ceramics industry as a whole.

Ways that you can help:
- Sign the petition here: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/764785 (we need 10,000 signatures for the government to respond)
- Share this post
- Tag your friends in the comments and spread the word about the petition.

Thank you for all of your support for our Ceramics Industry as well as for Denby.

Consider making a small donation to this worthy charity- every donation makes a difference 💙

Hello lovely people of the Mobiloo community 💜

We were all sad to see the collapse of RevoLOOtion — a charity that worked tirelessly to make sure disabled people could attend events with dignity. They were one of only a tiny number of organisations in the UK doing this vital work, and their loss leaves a real gap.

But we’re not ones to stand by when there’s something we can do.

Mobiloo is stepping in to rescue the service — acquiring vehicles through the insolvency process, getting them serviced, road-legal and back at events before the festival season begins.
And we need your help to make it happen.
For thousands of people like Sam — who has already bought his festival tickets and is now wondering if he’ll be able to go — this isn’t just disappointing. It’s the difference between being included and being left out. Again.

We’re raising £50,000 to act fast, before the summer season starts without us.
Every pound helps. Every share matters. Even if you can’t donate, please pass this on to anyone who believes disabled people deserve to enjoy summer just like everyone else.
Link to donate is in the comments 👇
💜 Thank you — you wonderful lot
