We were asked to attend a second careers fair at Neston High School on the 25th January 2018 where we provided careers advice and routes into construction to both pupils and parents from Neston High School, which is adjacent to our site at Neston Leisure Centre. Following the visit, a number of pupils have expressed an interest in construction and a 6th form student is starting work experience on site at the end of February.

Huntington Primary School

During our new build project at Huntington Primary School, through the North West Construction Hub, we have been supporting the Work Zone based in Chester, who offer support to individuals in identifying and developing job hunting and employability skills. Dan Hampson provided some practical advice and shared his experiences in construction. 16 unemployed people are undertaking a CSCS course and we have provided an opportunity of a site tour and work experience when they have passed their studies.
