Our apprentice ambassadors Kelly Butler (left) and Lucy Strutt (Right) attended the all day Sussex-wide careers event at Brighton Racecourse, 15 October 2014.

Over 30 school across Sussex attended the event, visiting a range different stalls all providing careers advice to young people. 

Our ambassadors Kelly and Lucy were among this giving advice and real life experience of what being an apprentice is like and what it involves, as well as encouraging the idea of taking on an apprenticeship after school or college. 

Kelly Butler, Human Resources apprentice, said: "At this event, we managed to inform a number of young people about apprenticeships and the opportunities that are available to them, gaining positive feedback on this. 

Doing career events like this, allows us as an organisation to interact with young people and gives them a sense of what is available when they leave school or college."

Ellie and Lucy gave advice and their own experiences as an apprentice at Brighton & Hove City Council to the students as well as promoting the different types of apprenticeships available locally and nationally.

Ellie Bacon, Communications Apprentice said: "I really enjoyed being able to help and advise sixth form students today as they are in the same position I was in only two years ago.

I also enjoyed providing real life experience as an apprentice and I feel this can be extremely valuable to anyone considering an apprenticeship."
