Education
Our schools programme helps local secondary school pupils to build skills and prepare for
work. This could be helping with CV’s, offering mock interview experiences or an insight
into the diverse career opportunities within our business.
Our university programme helps graduates forge lasting links with industry and gain vital
commercial experience. We have developed programmes to connect with national and
international further education students; setting industry specific projects, collaborations
and sponsored awards with partner universities at degree and masters levels.
We support the Worshipful Company of Weavers Textile Conference for 2nd year students,
giving an insight to industry and access to mills, to support student development and forge
industry relationships. We also support their entry to work scheme which offers full time,
fully paid employment for new graduates. As well as being active in the UKFT Textile
apprenticeship scheme.
