Bradford Manufacturing Weeks set to return this autumn

Bradford Manufacturing Weeks is set to return this autumn with its most action-packed programme of events yet.

The event, administered by West & North Yorkshire Chamber of Commerce, brings manufacturers together with schools and young people to showcase all that the sector has to offer.

It does this through tours, work experience, seminars, exhibitions and learning events held at manufacturer premises and key locations across the district.

Now in its seventh year, Bradford Manufacturing Weeks has connected 16,000 students in the region with manufacturers, helping to launch many a career in the sector. The programme is administered by West and North Yorkshire Chamber of Commerce and SkillsHouse at Bradford Council.

Mark Cowgill, president of Bradford Chamber of Commerce, said: “Bradford has one of the finest manufacturing sectors in the country and Bradford Manufacturing Weeks has done so much good work in giving it new blood.

“Manufacturing can give you a well-paid, secure and incredibly interesting career that can take your work across the planet.”
