We are so pleased to hear of the positive reaction of the new medals and badges which Wyedean made for Brontë Academy Trust. We look forward to the event at Bradford Live in July and seeing the reaction from the children when they receive their special awards. A great incentive for the next generation to work towards a reward they can treasure.

✨ 10 YEARS OF BRONTË ACADEMY TRUST! ✨

The celebrations for our milestone 10th anniversary are officially underway, and we couldn't be prouder of our amazing pupils! 🏅

The very first wave of Wyedean custom-crafted Brontë Academy Award medals and badges have been presented to children across our four schools: Oakworth Primary School and Nursery, Haworth Primary School and Nursery, Lees Primary School and Nursery , and Oldfield Primary School and Nursery

These awards celebrate pupils who consistently live out our Trust values in meaningful ways—from raising vital funds for Sue Ryder Manorlands, to incredible student-led initiatives like running our school uniform shop.

🚀 Next stop: Bradford Live! 🚀

This initial round of recognition sets the stage for a historic, full-scale celebration this summer. For the first time ever, our Trust family will come together at the iconic, Bradford Live venue for our official awards ceremony! Parents will watch on as our Bronze, Silver, and Gold awards are presented to students from years 1, 4, and 6.

We can’t wait to see you all there for an unforgettable summer evening! 🌟

The countdown is on! Tomorrow marks Trooping the Colour 2026 — a day filled with history, tradition and exceptional craftsmanship, as the nation comes together to celebrate His Majesty The King’s Official Birthday. 👑

We’re incredibly proud that Wyedean’s work will once again form part of this iconic event. In recent weeks, our talented team has carefully restored a selection of the magnificent hand-embroidered Drum and Trumpet Banners that will appear on parade. 🥁✨

After many years of ceremonial use, some of these historic banners required specialist attention, including intricate embroidery restoration and repairs to delicate details such as tassels. These Drum and Trumpet Banners are over 20 years old.

Carefully restored by our skilled embroiderers, each Banner has been brought back to its former glory — combining traditional skills, specialist techniques and hours of meticulous craftsmanship to help preserve these important pieces of military heritage.

Our recent Trooping the Colour journey:
🔹 2023: The Blues and Royals (Royal Horse Guards and 1st Dragoons)
🔹 2024: Number 9 Company Irish Guards
🔹 2025: No. 7 Company, 2nd Battalion Coldstream Guards
🔹 2026: Drum and Trumpet Banners proudly restored ready for parade

👉 Did you know…? The tradition of Trooping the Colour dates back over 260 years. Originally, Colours were carried through the ranks so soldiers could recognise their regiment on the battlefield — a tradition that has evolved into the spectacular ceremony we know today.

📺 Whether you’re heading to London or watching from home, keep an eye out for the details, craftsmanship and traditions that make this event so special. 🇬🇧

M I L L - F L A G S

You may have noticed our flags flying proudly at the top of our mill… and this week we had a lovely phone call from a local resident who had been admiring them and wanted to know more about the story behind them.

Our flags have been a long-standing tradition here at the mill. Throughout the year we fly different flags to recognise special occasions, celebrations and important moments — as well as flying the flags of our overseas customers, suppliers and partners when they visit us here in Haworth.

This week we have been flying the flag of Pakistan 🇵🇰 as we welcomed our long-term partner Mustansar Bashir and his son Asadullah Bashir to the mill.

Our partnership spans more than 25 years, and it has been a pleasure to welcome them back as we discussed future plans, priorities and the continued development of our work together.

Tomorrow brings our next flag changeover as we mark His Majesty The King’s Official Birthday and Trooping the Colour this weekend. 👑🇬🇧

Keep looking up… you never know which flag you’ll spot next!

So if you’re passing by today… don’t forget to look up! ❤️🤍

A big hello and Glædelig Grundlovsdag to all our Danish customers and friends — we hope you have a wonderful day. 🇩🇰

(And if you spot our flag, give us a wave! 👋)

🌍 International Nurses’ Day | 12 May 🩺

Today, we recognise the dedication, compassion, and resilience of nurses across the world. On the anniversary of Florence Nightingale’s birth, we celebrate the incredible contribution nurses make every day to patients, families, and communities.

We’re proud to support nurses by manufacturing clear, professional name badges supplied as part of the request from the Ministry of Defence — helping patients easily identify the healthcare professionals caring for them while supporting communication, confidence, and safety in busy healthcare environments.

Inspired by the “Hello My Name Is” campaign, clear name badges help create more personal patient interactions.

To every nurse — thank you for the care, kindness, and reassurance you bring every single day. 👩‍⚕️👨‍⚕️

H A P P Y - A N N I V E R S A R Y 👑🇬🇧

Three years ago today, history was made.

As we mark the third anniversary of the Coronation of Their Majesties King Charles III and Queen Camilla, today’s celebrations continue a proud royal tradition.

At 12pm, a 41 Gun Royal Salute will be fired in Hyde Park by The King’s Troop Royal Horse Artillery to honour the historic occasion — a powerful tribute to a day that united tradition, ceremony, and a new chapter for the monarchy.

Looking back on the 2023 Coronation, the unforgettable flypast, and the celebrations across the nation, it remains a moment many will never forget.

It’s also a moment for us here at Wyedean to look on with pride as we see the items we make being worn as part of the day’s celebrations, with uniforms proudly displayed by those taking part.

🏅 We also proudly remember that four members of the Wyedean team were awarded the King Charles III Coronation Medal for their exceptional craftsmanship in creating hand-embroidered Colours and Standards presented at the Coronation — proud symbols of service, heritage, and loyalty to the Crown.
