People have been spinning, weaving and dyeing for thousands of years. Nowadays, we do it for fun, not out of necessity, but there may come a time, when we will need to rely on these ancient skills once again.

The Bradford Guild is an association of ordinary people from all walks of life who share an interest in textiles  and who want to keep the crafts of spinning weaving and dyeing alive and also to encourage others to join in.
 
The Guild was founded in July 1982 when three people, who had completed a spinning and weaving course, decided that they wanted to find a way to continue to develop their skills, but without a formal course structure. From that small beginning the Guild has continued to grow and is still thriving.

Anyone is welcome to join us, even if they don't spin, weave or dye! If you would like to talk to us, details of the current committee members can be found on the contacts page or you can email the Guild at bradfordguild@googlemail.com
