Entrepeneurs at Handmade at Haworth

Two of our newest traders, exhibiting at Handmade at Haworth, are candle maker Melanie Flears and ceramic artist Kath Bonson. 

Both artists will be selling as part of the Bradford Enterprise Academy, which delivers inspirational and exciting enterprise programmes to Bradford College students. In collaboration with Bradford Kickstart (LEGI programme), Bradford College has designed and developed a new academy for enterprise. 

Bradford Enterprise Academy supports both artists in their new business ventures with advice and access to business counsellors. Here's what they have to say.

“Our vision is to enable all students to have an equal opportunity to access Enterprise Learning through a range of learning mediums thereby equipping them with the skills, knowledge and attributes to be successful both in the world of work and in their personal lives.”

Bradford Enterprise Academy will be supporting more entrepeneurial artists at our 

Handmade at Ilkley event on 28 May at Riddings Hall.
