MEET...<br />

Paul Wright<br />

I have been blown away in the last 12 months<br />

by the reaction we have had by the crafting<br />

community and first and foremost I want to thank<br />

YOU. To see my vision come to life where we can<br />

give access to so many budding crafters, hobbyists<br />

and artists has been an absolute thrill to me and<br />

all the team at <strong>Hochanda</strong> HQ. The last 12 months<br />

has not been without its challenges but I think we<br />

can all agree we have come such a long way from<br />

that very first broadcast at 12pm on 27th August<br />

2015.<br />

Over the 7 day event we will be showcasing some<br />

of the very best craft experts in the industry. We<br />

have lots to celebrate and as a big thank you for<br />

your continued support in our 1st year, I have<br />

given all our customers £10 on their account to<br />

spend during the celebrations*. That’s not all! Our<br />

guests joining us during the 7 day celebrations<br />

also want to say thank you so there are gifts with<br />

every purchase made from live hours too.<br />

7 days of celebrations, to say thank you from<br />

us all at <strong>Hochanda</strong>, that we hope will keep you<br />

busy with craft projects for many weeks to<br />

come. The past 12 months for me has been<br />

truly inspiring. To be able to meet so many of<br />

you at Ally Pally earlier this year was such a<br />

wonderful experience. We couldn’t wait to book<br />

up for September so we hope to see you there<br />

again. For the senior management team and<br />

myself we have a very clear goal in that we want<br />

to reach as many of you as possible with variety.<br />

This is either by broadcasting our live shows<br />

on traditional shopping TV platforms, or even<br />

meeting many of you at exhibitions and shows<br />

and even more recently launching Masterclass<br />

Live HD. All we do comes from listening to<br />

you, we monitor all the online forums closely<br />

and regularly communicate with many of you<br />

directly. <strong>Hochanda</strong> is YOUR Home of Crafts,<br />

Hobbies and Arts so please do continue to tell<br />

us the crafts you want more of and services you<br />

want us to provide. We will continue to listen<br />

and do what we can to build a home with a<br />

family that you are proud to be part of… here’s to<br />

the next 12 months and so much more exciting<br />

news and developments to come your way.<br />
