Council-funded independent advice service is a one-stop-shop for apprenticeships.

ACTION

Stockport Apprenticeships Store, the UK's only independent apprenticeship hub, has helped thousands of young people looking to gain experience in the workplace.

The initiative, funded by Stockport Council, has become well known in Greater Manchester as a "one-stop-shop" for young people, training providers and employers needing apprenticeship resources and advice.

Store manager David Casserly believes it is this reputation that has contributed to the hub's success. "Not only are we known in the area for young people but because we work closely with schools and colleges they know us as a resource," he explains. "The same is true for parents and also employers who know that if they want to find out anything to do with apprenticeships they can give us a call."
