Persimmon sponsors 10th annual Carlisle skills fair

13 February 2024

We’re proud to have once again acted as a main sponsor to the Carlisle Skills Fair, this year celebrating its 10th anniversary

Held at Carlisle College in partnership with the city’s MP John Stevenson, the event brings businesses from across Cumbria together to meet with students and young people looking to take the next steps on their learning and career journeys.

The event was timed to coincide with National Apprenticeship Week in England and Wales which aims to shine a light on the difference that apprenticeships make to individuals, businesses and the wider economy.

More information about apprenticeships, including openings, can be found on the Government’s apprenticeships portal https://www.apprenticeships.gov.uk/
