Through our work placement initiatives, we try to give young people the opportunity to experience a variety of different trades and gain valuable site experience.
Over the past year we have worked with a number of different employability support agencies in the areas in which we are working.
At our Laurieston Glasgow site McTaggart we recently celebrated its 100th work placement.
William – Is a student in the Barnardo’s Employability Stage 3 programme. Living in the Laurieston area the site for New Gorbals Housing Association offered an ideal setting to gain the 100 hours work experience required and successfully achieve is qualification.
William now hopes to progress onto the NPA in Construction course at College in August.
