#NAW2015 – Celebrating National Apprenticeship Week2nd Mar 2015

National Apprenticeship Week, which this year runs from 9 to 13 March, celebrates the positive impact apprenticeships have on individuals, businesses, the economy and the community.

At Jones Bros we regularly take on new apprentices: we have recruited dozens of young people over several decades – employing 35 apprentices since 2010.  Some of our apprentices have gone on to fantastic success, including Geraint Thomas who is now the regional manager for Southern England.  We are currently recruiting for six apprentices to start in May.

We will update this page with everything we get up to in the run-up to, and during, National Apprenticeship Week.  Make sure you follow us on Twitter @JonesBrosUK to stay up to date with the latest news from Jones Bros.
