London’s ancient leather industry guild, the Worshipful Company of Leathersellers will increase its total grant-making to the UK leather sector, chair Nicholas Tusting has confirmed.

The funding will support micro tanneries, apprenticeships, training for bookbinders and leatherworkers, research, teaching, and the wider promotion of UK tanners in partnership with Leather UK.


Mr Tusting also announced that the Livery Company will support the relocation of the Leather Conservation Centre to a new workshop in Leicester, developed with partners including De Montfort University. The site will officially open on June 24.
