Design-led party accessories company Talking Tables has joined the British Home Enhancement Trade Associaton (BHETA).
Talking Tables was founded in 1999 by Claire Harris who had spotted a gap in the market for themed party items, party games and table trivia.

The company now has a staff of 40 and includes John Lewis, Paperchase, Selfridges and Waitrose as well as many independents in its customer base.

International sales director Ben Andrews said: "After seeing the benefits of being a BHETA member in a previous company I was very keen that this continued with Talking Tables. BHETA offers a fantastic way of sharing best practice with similar suppliers all dealing with the same retailers and it is great to share both positive things and challenges and benefit from the breadth of experience."
