The High Sheriff of the West Midlands is rallying local businesses to showcase their rising stars with this year’s National Apprenticeship Awards.

Louise Bennett OBE DL said the awards, now in their 18th year, provide a great opportunity for companies across the region to share their success stories and promote their young talent.

This year’s Awards are open for entries until July 28th.

With nine categories to choose from, Ms Bennett said the awards were a great way for companies show their appreciation to their apprentices who have continued to make an invaluable contribution to business and industry throughout the pandemic.

She said: “This year has been particularly exceptional as we continue to navigate our way through Covid19 and the awards are a great way for employers to showcase their apprentices and indeed their own businesses on a regional and maybe national level.”

The nine categories include:
