Celebrating National Apprenticeship Week 2025
We have been reflecting on the significant role that apprenticeships play in shaping the future of our industry. NationalApprenticeshipWeek is a reminder of the value of learning on the job and the power of combining practical experience with formal education. To celebrate, we caught up with a few of our brilliant apprentice’s to talk about their experiences and why they chose to join the Neilcott Apprenticeship Scheme.
We are also thrilled to announce that Neilcott is now a proud member of The 5% Club, an initiative that promotes and celebrates employers who are committed to developing their workforce through apprenticeships, graduate schemes, and other work-based learning.
Being part of this initiative allows us to continue our focus on providing valuable career pathways, with a commitment to ensuring that at least 5% of our workforce is made up of apprentices, graduates, and trainees. We’re excited to work alongside other forward-thinking businesses who share our vision for nurturing talent and creating pathways for young people to thrive.
