We hosted a parliamentary reception yesterday to discuss plumbing skills with MPs, Peers, apprentices, employers and industry leaders. With workforce and apprenticeship numbers declining we need stronger support for SMEs and training. Thanks to all who joined us! #apprenticeships
A big day for JTL 🔌
We welcomed the Skills Minister @Jacqui_Smith1 to open our new Thames Valley training centre. She met with apprentices and local employers; seeing our high quality training in action to power the UK’s future workforce.

Delivering homes & clean energy depends on skilled, competent workers - we need strong skills policies.
The new @thefabians report reinforces the need to back SMEs; support apprenticeship completion, & resist quick fixes in safety‑critical roles.

“For safety‑critical trades, workforce shortages are deepening, driven by ageing, falling apprenticeship numbers & barriers to completion.”
Chris Claydon, CEO, JTL
High‑quality apprenticeships matter because competence & public safety matter. @thefabians

New @thefabians report, using JTL insights, demonstrates construction skills shortages.
For safety‑critical trades, the message is clear:
✅back apprenticeships
✅support SMEs
✅prioritise competence & completion
We must avoid short‑term fixes that risk standards & safety
Great event yesterday at JTL Eastbourne’s trade day! Alongside our valued partners City Electrical Factors we welcomed employers and apprentices in to the centre. Huge thank you to @JoshBabarinde MP who showed his support for apprenticeships #electrician#apprenticeships
