Quote From Our Director; Michael Cairns

“An apprenticeship is a fantastic way to obtain a skill for life. By completing an apprenticeship, it has allowed me to offer employment opportunities, which in turn has meant creating new opportunities for apprentices. Our team are passionate about apprenticeships and thrive off being able to pass on knowledge and training onto the next generation. I encourage anyone thinking of starting an apprenticeship to do whatever they can, to ensure they are successful in finding an apprenticeship. I hope the information we have put together on this page helps you in pursuing your new career in the Plumbing Industry.”
