"Farmers may just see the BWMB as a wool collection service, but it does far more than that. BWMB is active at all stages of the wool supply chain, being involved in wool harvesting, grading fleeces and the selling of wool by auction to processors and manufacturers.”

In addition to the Board’s own promotional activities, through its involvement with the Campaign for Wool (CfW) it is also very active in promoting wool and woollen products to consumers, both as a fashion fabric and also as a furnishing and interior design material, he added.

Mr Corbett said the CfW has been a major force for good in the wool industry, both at home and abroad. "We're delighted to be taking this opportunity to show what the CfW is doing and highlight its success both here in the UK and internationally.

On the farming front visitors to the stand will also be able to find out more about BWMB's involvement in shearer training, said Mr Colin MacGregor, Regional Manager for Scotland. “Training new and upcoming shearers are one of the most important activities of BWMB and the quality and quantity of the shearers we have in this country is something we are very proud of.”

Young British shearers learn skills which can lead to a range of opportunities across the world and set them up for life, he added. “But crucially, highly skilled shearers, such as those trained by BWMB, are essential to ensure wool is harvested from sheep in an efficient and welfare friendly manner."
