Iain was on hand to unveil a specially commissioned mural to inspire staff at a local call centre.
Students from Cleveland College of Art and Design Cheryll Kung, Rebecca Readman and Laura Heasman created the painting for staff at Anglian Water here in Hartlepool.
Team leader Carron Brown came up with the idea of the mural to help brighten up the workplace and it incorporates the company's mission statement which is Leading, Vital and Proud.
Iain said
"It was a pleasure to unveil the mural and to meet the talented artists involved in producing it. I hope that such talent is kept in the town and that more businesses will realise the potential of our Arts students here in Hartlepool."
