In this week's episode of the Jewellers Academy podcast, host Kim Thomson is speaking with Anna Mcloughlin. Anna is an Ethical Designer/Goldsmith specialising in creating mini wearable sculptures and remodelling jewellery. Her jewellery business is B-Corp certified and she recently won the 2023 Halo Award from the British Hallmarking Council.

Anna talks about her training as a jeweller and her career to date. She explains how she ended up applying to be a B-Corp and the process you need to go through as a jeweller. She also talks about the stress of having to move her studio in a month and how this meant she could start again and build an eco-friendly jewellery workshop.
