Seventh instalment of Bradford Manufacturing Weeks this autumn
Bradford Manufacturing Weeks will return in autumn with a packed programme of events.
The initiative brings manufacturers together with schools and young people to showcase what the manufacturing sector can offer.
This is achieved through tours, work experience, seminars, exhibitions, and learning events held at manufacturer premises and other locations across the district.
Bradford Manufacturing Weeks, which is now in its seventh year, has connected around 16,000 students in the region with manufacturers already, according to a spokesperson.
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."
Bradford Manufacturing Weeks is a not-for-profit event that relies on sponsors and supporters.
Confirmed sponsors for the 2025 initiative include NatWest, Appris, University of Bradford, Azets, Ethica Recruitment, Schofield Sweeney, Produmax, Solenis, and Make UK.
Sponsorship opportunities are now available for the 2025 programme, with more information obtainable by emailing bmw@
