LOCAL INITIATIVES

At Carr’s, each of the mills are very much an integral part of the local community. Carr’s are involved in a number of community initatives:

Carr’s helps support the Warwick Bridge Corn Mill, through a financial donation, as well as technical advice and support. The Warwick Bridge Corn mill which is local to the Silloth mill, has recently been renovated by donations and public grants through a lot of local community support. A Community Benefit Society (CBS) has now been set up to lease and run the mill as a community bakery. Their vision is to create a sustainable future for the community Corn Mill that will preserve this key local asset for generations to come and enhance a sense of community in Warwick Bridge and the surrounding area. 

Carrs Flour, also supports Breakfast Clubs, an initative by the Gregg’s Foundation to give children breakfasts. Carr’s Flour has funded the school breakfast club at Newtown Primary, Cumbria since April 2015.

Carr’s also sponsor the Raith Rovers Football Club, a Scottish professional football club based in Kirkcaldy. 

Carr’s also support the Silloth local school, the children’s football team and Silloth Rugby Club.
