At Chamberlain music we love to support local suppliers promoting British manufactured goods and especially prioritising workshops over larger factories. We have lots of suppliers who make goods for us in the UK – our leather music cases are made in Liverpool, our whistles in Birmingham and our mallets & beaters in Leicestershire – and lots more. When you do a little digging, its sometimes easier than you might think to buy goods that are made locally – we have microphones, trumpet mutes, instrument cases and lots more - all made in the UK. Our aim is simply to highlight products that are local, helping our customers make informed purchasing decision.

The benefits and importance of manufacturing in the UK:

• Hugely reduced carbon footprint, no containers or ships required
• Supporting our British manufacturers and the UK economy
• Preserving traditional crafts and people with a long history of making great products
• More often than not, higher product quality and better ethical standards
• So much quicker and easier when our suppliers are just 50 miles away as opposed to 5000
