Bradford Manufacturing Weeks (BMW) brings manufacturers, schools & young people together through tours, work experience, seminars, exhibitions and learning events held at manufacturer premises and key locations across the district.

Going from strength to strength, over recent years Bradford Manufacturing Weeks has connected over 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.”
