NSA Next Generation and British Wool Wool Symposium

The Wool Symposium is a biennial event organised by NSA Next Generation and British Wool. It offers up to 12 young people aged from 18 to 35 the opportunity to go behind the scenes at British Wool’s Bradford headquarters and also debate the UK wool sector and the role of young people within in. The Bradford tour includes viewing the wool sorting and grading processes and the live auction of wool to bidders from across the globe. The roundtable discussion includes opportunity to meet key representatives from NSA, British Wool and the wool sector.

The symposium is ideal for young sheep farmers and wool enthusiasts to gain a more thorough understanding of this fantastic fibre and the processes involved in taking it from farm to consumer and the role sheep producers can have in ensuring the best return is achieved.
