Now is the time to celebrate the great young trade apprentices who are learning and earning in Ross-on-Wye with the launch of the Screwfix Trade Apprentice Award 2018.

The competition, organised by Screwfix, is open for entries now. It’s designed to find the finest trade-apprentices or full-time apprentice students in the nation. One winner will be rewarded with an ultimate prize package worth £10,000 to help them to step onto the career ladder in the best possible way.

The most impressive entries from the region will be selected to go head-to-head at a national final at Google headquarters in London, where one person will win the title and receive a brilliant business start-up pack including a laptop with accessories, £5,000 worth of Screwfix products and funds for future training and courses.

Entries are open until March 4th.

William Ellis, Screwfix Top Trade Apprentice Winner 2017, said: “This has been an amazing opportunity and a brilliant step into launching my career. I’d recommend any trade apprentice applies for this competition – this year it could be you!”
