The Apprentice Driving Force with Citroën Vans

For Every Trade Family

It’s not easy starting out on the tools – so much to learn, new skills to master and tea to make!

Now Fix Radio and Citroën vans are giving three trade apprentices a helping hand, by teaching them to drive! A lifelong skill to help with their development and keep your business moving.

We'll be checking in with participants throughout their journey to gaining their driving license with regular on-air content over the coming months. 

So, if you’re an apprentice looking to get on the road or have an apprentice looking to upskill, register your interest below and we could be in touch soon!
