The Worshipful Company of Blacksmiths have this week announced that recent graduate, Rory Zochowski, has been awarded the Stanley Allcard Cup. Stanley Allcard was the Prime Warden of the Worshipful Company in 1961. The Worshipful Company decided to mark Stanley’s contribution by awarding an annual cup to a Blacksmith graduate for outstanding studentship. This is an enormous honour and we are delighted that Rory is the recipient for this year. He will be awarded the cup at the Worshipful Company’s annual Awards Ceremony later this month.

The Worshipful Company of Blacksmiths is one of the Livery Companies of the City of London. The organisation was first mentioned in a court record in 1299. A Royal Charter officially granting it the status of Company was granted in 1571. The Company originally had the right to set regulations and standards for blacksmiths in the City of London.
