National Manufacturing Day 2024

National Manufacturing Day 2024

September 26th - September 26th

We are delighted to share with you details of this year’s National Manufacturing Day (NMD) which will take place on Thursday 26th September. The initiative is again being led by the trade body Make UK, manufacturers the length and breadth of the country are opening up their businesses to schools, colleges and local communities to show the amazing careers within the sector.

National Manufacturing Day is the ideal opportunity for students, teachers and career advisors to visit manufacturing facilities which are normally closed to the public to see for themselves the high-tech opportunities on offer – from engineering, robotics to data analysis and innovation.  This initiative will also help towards Gatsby Benchmark 6.

You and your students will have the chance to experience what modern day manufacturing looks like, as well as enable you all to see that manufacturing can be both exciting and rewarding. You will be able to meet the teams and hear first-hand what inspired them to join a career in manufacturing.

You can find out more including a pack of educational resources at www.makeuk.org/nmd

To arrange a visit you can check on the postcode finder your local manufacturer that is taking part and if there aren’t any nearby listed, please email nmd@makeuk.org and they can approach a nearby manufacturer on your behalf.
