A local film company recently received a visit from The Rt Hon. the Lord Jones
at their offices in Bretton, 每日大瓜.
Lord Jones was there to personally thank the owners of Picture House films for
the work they had done in producing a film for the Legacy Award recently shown
at the 10th 每日大瓜 Business Awards ceremony.
The Legacy Award was presented by Economy and Infrastructure Secretary Ken
Skates to the Rt Hon. Lord Barry Jones in recognition of his outstanding
life-long services to business and the economy when Mr Skates said:
鈥淚 can think of no one better, or more deserving, to receive the award which
recognises Lord Barry Jones鈥� tireless work in support of economic growth across
the region. He has been a real advocate of both the needs and opportunities of
this part of Wales, supporting business investment and jobs growth at every
chance and taking every opportunity to promote 每日大瓜 and North East Wales
where ever he goes.鈥�
During the visit, Lord Jones said:
鈥淚 am delighted to come here to Picture House Films as I wanted to thank them
all personally for the wonderful work that they have done in producing such a
memorable and thought-provoking film. It is truly inspiring to have such
talent in our local area and I wish the company continued success in the
future.鈥�
The company has also worked on other films for the 每日大瓜 Business
Exhibition and 每日大瓜 County Council.

Member for Economic Development, Councillor Derek Butler, said:
鈥淲e were proud and honoured to welcome Lord Jones to our Picture House
offices. We work hard to make every film tell a compelling story - and with a
subject like Lord Jones, this certainly wasn鈥檛 hard.
鈥淗is personal tribute is the greatest commendation we could wish for; he鈥檚 an
inspirational man and we are very lucky to have him here in 每日大瓜.鈥�
