Greg visits Kent Apprenticeship Fair

Greg visited the Kent Apprenticeship Fair in Maidstone organised by seven West Kent Members of Parliament including Greg, Tom Tugendhat, Helen Grant, Helen Whately, Laura Trott, Tracey Crouch and Gordon Henderson. In total, over 1,500 students and 70 employers from a range of industries attended, including many based in the Tunbridge Wells constituency, to learn about the opportunities that apprenticeships have to offer and the different career routes that can be taken.

Greg said: "The event was a real success and it is fair to say many careers were forged today."

Backing young people

I believe that every young person should be able to get a good place in a good school, get an apprenticeship, job, or a place at university and get onto the housing ladder locally. I am working with local schools and employers to improve the chances of young people with special educational needs to gain work experience.
