<\/a><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\nCara Group, a leading construction firm with offices in Manchester, Yorkshire, and Liverpool, is starting the year on a high note, celebrating a double nomination at the Hopwood Hall College Apprenticeship Awards 2025.<\/p>\n
Recognised for their work with apprentices and future talent, the group is shortlisted for two prestigious awards. Cara\u2019s first nomination is for Jack Ellam, an apprentice with Cara Construction, who is in the running for the \u2018Level 2 Apprentice\u2019 award. Jack\u2019s nomination highlights his progress through the apprenticeship programme and the significant contribution he\u2019s made to the team.<\/p>\n
Last year, Cara Group launched Future Skills, a programme designed to provide apprentices with the tools, training, and real-world experience they need to succeed in the industry. Initiatives such as their partnership with Keyfix offer apprentices invaluable hands-on experience, preparing them for successful careers in construction.<\/p>\n

Paddy Grady, Managing Director of\u00a0Cara\u00a0Construction, said: \u201cJack\u2019s hard work and drive are clear to see, and it\u2019s fantastic to see him shortlisted for this award. Apprenticeships are a vital part of what we do, and Jack is a great example of how much can be achieved when talent is supported and nurtured. I must praise the work of Neil,\u00a0Cara\u00a0Brickwork MD, and Jayne, our Apprentice Liaison Manager, for raising the bar with the \u2018Future Skills\u2019 programme and ensuring the right training is given by the colleges to our apprentices\u201d<\/p>\n
The second\u00a0nomination\u00a0goes to\u00a0Cara\u00a0Brickwork, shortlisted for the \u2018SME of the Year\u2019 award. This category celebrates small and medium enterprises that actively support apprentices and champion opportunities for the next generation in construction.<\/p>\n
Neil Allen, Managing Director of\u00a0Cara\u00a0Brickwork, added: \u201cThese\u00a0awards\u00a0highlight the brilliant work happening in our company and across the industry. It\u2019s a proud moment for everyone at\u00a0Cara\u00a0to see both Jack and\u00a0Cara\u00a0Brickwork recognised. We\u2019re looking forward to celebrating the evening and wish all the finalists the best of luck.\u201d<\/p>\n
