The Leather Workers’ Guild was officially established in November 1981 to promote, develop and advance leather work and encourage a sharing of ideas, skills and resources. We are a not-for-profit organisation and our aim is to provide an informative platform for all people with an interest in leather craft to gain more expertise and enjoyment with the help of our newsletters, workshops, demonstrations, open days and classes. Each year we hold our popular beginners’ course to show the range of techniques that can be used with leather as well as valuable tips on where to buy tools, dyes and leather.
