Apprentice Week 2020

Have you ever thought about becoming an apprentice in construction?

There are many ways you can get into it, through school or college or even just applying for the job.



To celebrate #NationalApprenticeWeek we headed onto one of our sites in Bangor to see if we could spot some apprentices working hard on site.

Of course, as you can see most of them were camera shy but it was good to meet them and show some of the different skills that it takes to build our houses at Lagan Homes.


Electrician – Baille

And last but not least...
