WL Distillery have been knitting up quite a ginpire over the year with their award-winning range, and now their signature bottles will be taking on a festive twist this season to support Sunderland based charity, Grace House.

The inspiration for WL Distillery comes from the founder and Managing Director, Scott Wilson-Laing spending his summers in his grandad’s garden.  Scott has called in extra support this season from his Nana to support a charity very close to his heart.

Nana Veronica has been working behind the scenes at the distillery to knit festive hat toppers for the 1st Edition Gin and Wilson’s Gin Club ‘Watermelon and Liquorice’, Each bottle sold will see a donation go the Grace House Christmas Appeal to support families this season.

Scott Wilson-Laing, Founder and Managing Director at WL Distillery said:

“The countdown to Christmas is on and along with the return of our popular festive flavour packs, we thought we’d give our signature bottles a festive makeover too. We support Grace House, a charity that we’ve worked with closely over the years.

Laura Jane Forbes, Corporate Fundraiser, Grace House North East said:

“We have been working with Scott at WL Distillery for over 2 years now and it is a fantastic partnership. Scott is incredibly generous in giving back to his local community. He always comes up with new ways to support Grace House.

We are delighted he chose Grace House for the donation from the Christmas bottles as this will make a big difference to the children and families we support. Christmas is a very special time at Grace House and the more we raise the more magical we can make Christmas for everyone.”

Grace House have a number of campaigns running over the festive period, including the Toy Appeal and Christmas Jumper Day, all events are listed on their website www.gracehouse.co.uk/events
