Dumfries and Galloway Council Apprentices Reach National Final

Dumfries and Galloway Council’s Enterprising DG was well represented at the Annual Scottish Apprentices of the year finals at Dunblane recently.

Enterprising DG Building and Construction Service had 3 apprentices representing Dumfries and Galloway:
1st Year Trade Category Daniel McTaggart – Plumber, Dumfries
3rd Year Trade Category Liam Brawls – Plumber, Stranraer
Non Trade Category Andrew Rae – Trainee Quantity Surveyor, Dumfries

Councillor Archie Dryburgh, Enterprising Services chairman, said: Our apprentices are of a very high calibre, which can be seen by them being finalists. Building the local economy is our Council Administration’s number one priority. The conference received a presentation giving an overview of what potential commercialisation can look like from a local authority perspective. Our chief executive gave a presentation on the potential of regenerating our towns and villages through partnership working with small and medium enterprises in our region.”
