Carpentry champion Robin Clevett announced as Professional Woodworking Expo 2026 Brand Ambassador

The organisers of Professional Woodworking Expo recently confirmed that Robin Clevett will serve as official Brand Ambassador for the 2026 event, which will take place at NEC Birmingham from 17–19 May. Robin’s return builds on his hands-on involvement and influence at the Materials & Finishes Show 2024, where he inspired professionals and elevated standards across the woodworking community.

 Robin will once again bring his expertise and authentic voice to this reimagined platform. With a strong social media presence and an unwavering commitment to craftsmanship, Robin has become a household name in the woodworking sector. In his ambassadorial role, he’ll advise organisers, champion key industry brands and energise the show’s renowned live demonstration zone and seminar programme.

With over 35 years’ experience in carpentry and joinery, alongside his thriving YouTube channel and role as presenter of FIX Radio’s ‘The Carpentry Show’, Robin is dedicated to advancing both practical skills and professional standards.

His involvement will drive awareness, engagement and attendance, reinforcing Professional Woodworking Expo 2026 as the UK’s only event 100% dedicated to woodworking and joinery professionals, with over 6,000 attendees expected.

David Todd, Event Director, commented: “Robin’s practical knowledge and genuine passion for the craft make him an ideal ambassador to help us grow and innovate. Building on the energy he brought to our last event, we’re excited to see new collaborations and hands-on experiences come to life in 2026.”

The Professional Woodworking Expo 2026 will feature expanded live demonstration areas, tailored seminars and unrivalled opportunities to connect with decision-makers and shape the sector’s future.

Speaking about his renewed role, Robin said: “I’m passionate about supporting emerging talent and encouraging grassroots involvement in our industry. This year, I’ll be bringing third-year construction and joinery students to help with a live demonstration of a roof build at the show. Practical experience is vital and there’s no better place to learn, share skills and network than at the Professional Woodworking Expo. I look forward to seeing new and familiar faces and helping to shape the future of UK woodworking.”

David Todd added: “Robin’s knowledge and enthusiasm for the craft are unmatched. We’re excited to build on the momentum of his previous ambassador roles and to see the next generation contribute at the show.”
