Sparky reaches semi-final of Screwfix Trade Apprentice competition
Posted: Thursday, March 28th, 2024
Marking a decade of the nationwide competition which shines a light on the UK & Ireland’s very best future talent, this year’s Screwfix Trade Apprentice received more than 1,800 applications, Sussex Express reported. Entries have now been whittled down to just 33, all of whom are in with the chance of being crowned Screwfix Trade Apprentice 2024 at the national final in May. Lewis, 21, who is currently studying City & Guilds Level 3 Electrical Installation at JTL Learning Centre Eastbourne, was nominated by his employer, Derek Bulled, director, at Corin Dudley Electrical Services. Lewis said: “For me, an apprenticeship isn’t just about learning new skills, it’s helped me unlock a passion. To reach the semi-finals is a result of my dedication and determination to embark on a successful career in the trades.” Lewis was shortlisted for the semi-final for his passion, dedication, and ambition – which shone through in Derek’s nomination. This year’s final will return to London in May, where the top ten apprentices will face a panel of industry experts to showcase why they believe they should be this year’s champion.
