Skinner’s still open for business

Afternoon everyone,

At this unprecedented time, I just wanted to drop you all a quick note to let you know that here at Skinner’s we are still very much open for business at our Mill in Suffolk, albeit we have had to adapt (and will continue to adapt) our ways of working to make sure we take appropriate steps to keep our people, our customers and local community safe, and to continue to comply with the Government’s COVID-19 guidelines.
