Andrew Broadbent

Andrew was born in Halifax, but all his family originate from the Sowerby Bridge area. He started his working life at Rowntree Mackintosh in Halifax as an apprentice fitter. After moving to the project office as a draftsman, he worked his way through engineering management with various blue chip companies around the country. He took early retirement while living in South Wales and moved back to settle in his home town of Halifax.

Andrew became involved with the Foundry Street community asset transfer process as he feels this is an important community asset that should be kept working for the people of Sowerby Bridge.
