“I found that I really enjoyed working with the youngsters, passing on my own skills and guiding them towards a worthwhile future. There are fewer jobs available at the low-skilled end of the trade these days and it’s harder for young people to get that first break. We teach them the importance of getting as much training as possible all through your working life.”

Graham Kenny

“The great thing is that everything we learn is relevant. The work here is complex and there are a lot of processes involved. If we find ways to do things better and increase efficiency then that has got to be a good thing. Even when you are using tried and tested manufacturing methods you should look for improvement.”
