Six new leather manufacturing apprentices for the UK
Philanthropic institution The Leathersellers’ Foundation has committed to support six apprentices over two years at three tanneries in the UK.
The foundation, which the Leathersellers’ Company, one of the ancient livery companies of the City of London, established in 1979, said the new apprenticeships will support the leather industry. The programme will follow a government-backed apprenticeship pathway and help safeguard leather manufacturing skills in the UK.
