A look behind the scenes at the Gamston Lock! 🍽️

Learners from our Nottingham site and The Archer recently visited The Gamston Lock for a Marston's Insight Day, hosted by Todd Lockley, Community Manager at Marston's.

Todd gave our learners a tour of the pub before leading a series of activities exploring the skills Marston's looks for in its employees.

The activities also encouraged learners to recognise those same skills in themselves and consider how they could apply them in the workplace.

A big thank you to Todd and the team at The Gamston Lock for welcoming us! 💜

The autumn weather isn't stopping our travel training! 🍂🚌

Our WayFinder learners have been wrapping up warm and getting out and about, continuing their travel training despite the colder weather.

A few extra layers might be needed this time of year, but we're still making the most of every journey! 🧥💜
