Apprenticeships combine practical training in a job with study. As an apprentice you'll be an employee earning a wage whilst working alongside experienced staff.

Lancashire Women is a charity that supports women to pursue positive change. Over the past five years, the 100-strong Lancashire Women team have supported over 5000 people each year to improve their lives and push through the barriers they face. We are looking for a multi skills apprentice to join us and help with minor repairs in clients homes.

Empower yourself and your community This apprenticeship offers hands-on training in property maintenance while working for a women's charity. Gain valuable skills, support a worthy cause, and build a fulfilling career.

The apprenticeship will involve the day-to-day maintenance and repair of a range of properties. This can be routine maintenance through to emergency repairs using a wide range of trade skills.
