This week marks National Apprenticeship Week - a chance to shine a light on the vital role apprenticeships play in backing skills, supporting local businesses, and helping people of all ages start a career.
Apprenticeships are a key part of the Conservatives plan for skills-led growth which is why we have committed to double the apprenticeship budget and expand high-quality apprenticeships as part of a skills-led growth plan that gives local people real job prospects.
During National Apprenticeship Week, I want to hear your views so I can continue to champion high-quality apprenticeships for our area and make the case for opportunity and aspiration in Parliament. Please do take a moment to fill out my survey below:
