United Textile Factory Workers' Association
The United Textile Factory Workers' Association (UTFWA) was a trade union federation in the United Kingdom.
==Objectives==
The federation was founded in 1889, to represent the various textile workers' unions in political matters.〔D. A. Farnie, ''Region and Strategy in Britain and Japan'', p.117〕 A successor to the Northern Counties Factory Acts Reform Association, it had a broader outlook, not just campaigning on the implementation and extension of the Factory Acts.〔Andrew Bullen, ''The Lancashire Weavers Union'', p.22〕
The UTFWA initially represented around 125,000 workers,〔Teun Hoefnagel, ''Tussen traditie en emancipatie'', p.328 〕 three-quarters within twenty miles of Bolton in Lancashire.〔P. F. Clarke, ''Lancashire and the New Liberalism'', p.84〕 By the early twentieth century, its members were organised in the Amalgamated Association of Card and Blowing Room Operatives, Amalgamated Association of Operative Cotton Spinners, Amalgamated Association of Beamers, Twisters and Drawers, Amalgamated Weavers' Association, General Union of Loom Overlookers and Operative Dyers, Bleachers and Finishers Association.〔P. F. Clarke, ''Lancashire and the New Liberalism'', p.93〕
The new federation had a General Council with about two hundred members of local unions, and a Legislative Council of full-time leaders. However, its member unions did not always engage with its structures, and the General Council did not meet between 1896 and 1899.〔David Howell, ''British Workers and the Independent Labour Party, 1888-1906'', pp.58-59〕
