The UK Fashion & Textile Association (UKFT) has announced that Chief Executive Officer John Miln will be stepping down and Adam Mansell will take over the role as of January 2016. Having held the position since 2011, John’s leadership has been instrumental in the growth and success of the association as it now stands and the businesses it has helped develop and grow. Adam Mansell, current Director of Special Projects at UKFT, will succeed John Miln and assume the role in January 2016. As Director of Special Projects at UKFT, his focus has been on increasing the membership offer, including overseeing the introduction of a new Retail Partner Programme, as well as introducing the UKFT Masterclasses and running an environmental programme, which has seen UK dyers and weavers significantly reduce their CO2 emissions.
