Cromford Mills has won a Sandford Award! We are incredibly proud of our Learning Team, who have once again won a Sandford Award. The award is presented by Bishop Grosseteste University in Lincoln: ‘Modern children visiting Cromford Mills can have little idea of the life of young people 200 years ago. By the conclusion of their visit, they will have experienced for themselves the working lives, albeit in an engaging way, of primary age children forced to earn their daily bread to help feed their families. The outstanding work performed by the Education team at Cromford Mills enlightens young minds in the realities of the production of cotton at this, the cradle of the Industrial Revolution. The great skill of the staff ensures that while learning they have a fun-filled experience.’
