The men have all joined Willmott Dixon's local Home Group North West branch in Cumbria where they will complete an apprenticeship with the company, gaining qualifications whilst gaining invaluable on-the-job work experience.
Willmott Dixon Partnerships' Opening Doors scheme provides training and development to employees, tenants and other local residents, and gives local students the opportunity to experience working in the construction and maintenance industry.

The company has employed Anthony Bruce and Brent Hood as apprentice plasterers whilst Ben Robinson and Carl Harrison have joined as apprentice plumbers. All four will work to complete NVQ's in their chosen trades whilst working alongside Willmott Dixon's team to deliver its repair and planned works programme to properties across the North West.
As well as the trade positions, the company has also employed Cockermouth's Thomas Clare, 19, as an apprentice customer and community partner.
