A former student at Manchester Polytechnic, Andrew holds a Diploma in Industrial Management.
Brother David is a skilled engineer who completed his apprenticeship at Woodmac, Todmorden. He joined JH Sutcliffe four years later than Andrew and achieved an Associateship in Industrial Management before going on to complete a business studies degree at Huddersfield University.
