Ulster Carpets

Ulster Carpets Manufacturers of the finest axminster & wilton carpets since 1938

Ulster Carpets was founded by George Walter Wilson in Northern Ireland in 1938 and is still
privately owned by the founder’s family. Ulster has taken the positive attributes associated with being a family-owned establishment and combined them with a forward-thinking, global approach to business. The result is a technologically advanced, service-driven company with flair, flexibility and a passion for quality.

The top prize of £5,000 was shared between Lurgan Junior High School for their presentation on Action Mental Health, and St. John the Baptist's College who highlighted the work of Women's Aid to combat violence against women.

As part of the challenge, all of the other teams were rewarded with a donation of £1,000 for their charity - Tandragee Junior High School for Baby Basics, St Ronan's College Lurganfor The Blossom Children’s Unit, Clounagh JHS for The Pantry and Killicomaine JHS for Rosie's Trust

As part of the challenge, teams from each school had to make a presentation about the work of their chosen charity and demonstrate how more funding can make a difference.

Members of the team had a great evening meeting potential Maintenance Engineering Apprentices.

With over 40 local employers and 1,000+ students and parents attending, there was a real buzz throughout the event. We spoke with 30+ students and parents at our stand about Ulster Carpets, what a Mechanical Maintenance Apprentice does, and how they can combine education with hands-on experience to achieve Level 2 & 3 qualifications.

Brilliant to see so much interest in the apprenticeship and trade route as an alternative to university.
