JPS donates more than £1000 of tools to Manchester apprentices

Jewson Partnership Solutions (JPS) has donated more than £1,000 worth of tools to three
apprentices in Wythenshawe to help them kickstart their careers.

Working closely with Toolbank, JPS gifted the products to apprentices at the Wythenshawe
Community Housing Group (WCHG), a registered social housing landlord.

The tools were donated through the JPS Social Value Fund, giving the three new
apprentices everything they need to get stuck into their roles from day one.

Paul Woodridge, branch manager at JPS WCHG Managed Stores, said: “Starting a new
career is difficult for young people in this day and age, so I am really happy that JPS and our supply partners, Toolbank, were able to take a worry and cost away by supplying these three deserving apprentices with some tools to support their professional journeys.

“Best of luck to all of them!”

Adele Duncan, employment co-ordinator at WCHG, said: “Our new trade apprentices have
been able to hit the ground running with these new tools, so we want to give a massive
thanks to JPS and Toolbank for making this happen.”
