A flourishing mindfulness and wellbeing company from London is on the move to a redeveloped Yorkshire mill complex where some of the region’s most famous TV showes were once filmed.
LSW London is relocating from the capital to take up studio space in Sunny Bank Mills, the well-known scheme at Farsley between Leeds and Bradford.
Over the past ten years Sunny Bank Mills, one of the most famous family-owned mills in Yorkshire, has been transformed into a modern office and mixed-use complex for the 21st century, creating 400 sustainable new jobs.

Lili Sinclair-Williams, the founder and creative director of LSW London, which was formed in 2017, said: “The location of Sunny Bank Mills in the centre of Farsley is perfect for us. We moved to the area in June 2020 and the mill has been a real draw for us - with its range of restaurants, bars, cafes and other exciting businesses.
“We’ve visited numerous times to enjoy all that SBM has to offer.
“We’ve experienced rapid growth in the past 18 months that has taken us from 30 stockists in the 海角视频 to over 600 stockists in 20 countries around the world.
“Over the next three years, we are going to expand our team, significantly increase our inventory levels and grow our distribution network - and we see Sunny Bank Mills as the perfect location to make this happen.

“Using my expertise as a therapist, I wanted to create wellbeing tools that were easy to use and accessible for everyone. Focusing on positive habits we repeat daily, I curated my favourite techniques into our first product, LSW Mind Cards. Today we have a full range of wellbeing and mindfulness products - including journals, cards and notebooks - selling in 20 countries around the world.
Ms Sinclair-Williams said that John and William Gaunt, the owners and joint managing directors of Sunny Bank Mills, where Yorkshire Television’s Emmerdale and Heartbeat were once filmed, had been very helpful during the process of viewing and leasing an office space in Red Lane Mill.
John Gaunt added: “LSW London are a wellbeing brand offering a range of beautiful mindfulness products and are going to strength to strength. Lili and her husband Mark are based locally and I am pleased to be offering quality business space in the community, close to where people live.
"Mindfulness is even more important now than it was when we started redeveloping the mill in 2008.”
“Our efforts are now firmly focused on refurbishing the remaining space in the iconic 1912 Mill with 14,000 sq ft of quality office space over two floors available to let in a variety of configurations.”
