We are incredibly proud of all our apprentices this National Apprenticeship Week 2026 — especially Lydia, our Business Administration Apprentice here at Dukinfield Medical Practice.

Lydia joined us from Ashton Sixth Form and has already shown great commitment, professionalism, and enthusiasm in her role. It’s inspiring to see her developing valuable skills and gaining hands-on experience in a busy primary care setting.

Supporting apprentices is something we truly value as a practice. Investing in young people like Lydia not only strengthens our team but also helps build the future workforce of the NHS and our local community.

Well done, Lydia — we’re so proud of everything you’re achieving.

We are very proud of our apprentices , including Lydia Adams, Business Administration apprentice at Dukinfield Medical Practice who has progressed from Rayner Stephens High School.
