  • A Short History of Bradford College
    A short history of Bradford College Genes from the past The past holds the secret to the genetic ingredients that have created the unique institution that is Bradford College today… Bradford could be said to succeed on its ability to utilise four resources: its Broad Ford beck and tributary streams of soft water, which contributed to the cottage industry of weaving within its natural valley; its largely poor people who from five years of age upwards were the backbone of its labour resources within that industry;its pioneers who led the country in welfare and educational reform; its “useful men” – with the capital to captain industry and the foresightedness to maximise on and develop the potential of canal, rail, steam and power machines that galvanised the industrial revolution. But there is much more to “Worstedopolis” as Bradford was known when it was the capital and centre of the world stage in the production of worsted textiles and the story of its College is not rooted in textile enterprise alone. Bradford had other resources from the outset– stone from its quarries and iron from its seams at Bowling and Low Moor, to the extent that the “Best Yorkshire” iron was in full use at Trafalgar, Waterloo and the Crimea. Bradford was ripe territory for engineers and inventors who automated the production of the woollen processes. Bradford has also made its name in areas that range from automobile production to artificial limb design. All of these strands are evident in the very earliest portfolio on offer – and many survive today. Once technical training emerged, it began – then as today - to deliver the skills that employers and markets require - but whilst Bradford buildings in their locally quarried golden stone rose around the slums, a world of financial “haves” and “have nots” poured into the town.

  • Choosetochallenge
    2021 Celebrating and recognising the achievements of women www.visitbradford.com/iwd March 2021 Celebrations across Bradford District #ChooseToChallenge Life for Dance A message from the Leader of Bradford Council Councillor Susan Hinchcliffe The theme for this year’s International Women’s Day 2021 is #ChooseToChallenge. All of us in society have a right to challenge attitudes, behaviours, prejudices and with that challenge comes change and making a difference for a more equal and fairer future for girls and women across the district. Over the last year we have all been working very differently as we have faced the many challenges this global pandemic has thrown at us. Every one of us has had to make some real lifestyle changes from not seeing family and friends face to face, working from home on a full time basis, home schooling to ensuring we stay fit and healthy. So this year we want to celebrate International Women’s Day in how women have stepped up to the challenge and have had to adapt in the roles they hold from senior management to those on the front line or to those who have had to juggle home working and home schooling to achieve the best outcomes for all. As women we should feel proud of what we have accomplished over the year. Bradford has such a rich and vibrant history of the many women who have inspired us all by breaking all boundaries through challenging traditional ideas which have helped to pave the way so that we too can make a difference in society.

  • Bradford's International Women's Day Programme
    2019 Celebrations across BRADFORD DISTRICT Come and enjoy a fantastic programme of inspirational talks, entertainment and activities taking place across the district celebrating and recognising the achievements of women www.bradford.gov.uk/iwd #BalanceforBetter Life for Dance A message from the Leader of Bradford Council Councillor Susan Hinchcliffe International Women’s Day is a global day celebrating the achievements of women in every sphere. Our programme in Bradford spans two weeks and celebrates some fantastic women from past and present – from Manningham’s pioneering women of the 19th century through to those who fought for women’s rights in the 20th century, to successful modern-day women such as a Paralympic cyclist and others in the worlds of business, sport, the media and beyond. Across the Bradford District we have terrific success stories of local women achieving great things. We have rising female employment and a surge in women entrepreneurs contributing to our vibrant culture and growing economy. But while we see many remarkable women in our own circles and in the public eye, it’s also a time to remember there are still staggering inequalities in this country and of course around the globe. This year’s programme tackles these serious issues while celebrating new opportunities and offering creativity, culture and community. It’s great to see so many hands-on activities this year and I urge you to get involved whatever your age or background. This year’s theme of #balanceforbetter calls for a more gender-balanced world. Whether it’s in the workplace, the home or in any other sphere, it’s not just a moral imperative for women to be able to contribute fully and fulfil their potential – it’s a common-sense one.
