John Jack and Paul are great and easy to get along with you can have fun whilst learning new skills. The skills are helpful and give you an idea of what you may want to do when you leave school, I wanted an apprenticeship and the work I did at Building Futures Together was important.

Building Futures Together have said they will support me if needed. Building Futures Together is a great place to go if you are wanting to get into the trades of plumbing or be an electrician it’s a good introduction, its fun and you learn valuable skills.
