With the huge ongoing skills shortage, it’s vital that more young people feel encouraged to get on thetools!Today we’ll be discussing whether training is both good and available enough to young people, to encourage them to get into the trades. We were joined by many guests on today's show, including Julie Fisher, the Interim UK CEO for Simply Business, who shared data on the skills shortage, and Kirsty Evans - Executive Principal for the National Construction College who discussed training opportunities.There’s also the pub lunch quiz for your chance to grab yourself 6 points as well as the very best messages that we received - enjoy!
