The Knockando Woolmill Trust was set up in 2000 in order to rescue the Woolmill. The aim of the Trust is to ensure the Woolmill survives for the next 200 years. We want to:
• Restore the buildings and machinery;
• Continue to produce cloth;
• Train a new generation of people to card, spin and weave;
• Share the Woolmill experience with as many people as possible.
We shall raise money for the capital restoration project. Once this is completed, we shall form an operating company to run the restored site. This will include the production of cloth on the old and some newer machinery, better access and facilities for visitors, the interpretation of the site and practical education and training in textile and heritage engineering skills.
