A spokesperson for Kevin Hollinrake previously told the Gazette & Herald: “This (event) will not only benefit those young, bright students who are leaving school in the next couple of years and may not know what they want to do career wise, but will also boost the region by ensuring local businesses can offer work opportunities to apprentices and forge lasting connections with local schools.”
The fair is free for members of the public with an open door policy in place, but those attending are encouraged to register for the event by contacting Mr Hollinrake’s office on 020 7219 4746 or by emailing: kevin.hollinrake.mp@parliament.uk.
