Designed to support local businesses\, the session will explore the latest recruitment incentives\, funding opportunities and workforce solutions available to help employers attract\, develop and retain talent while reducing recruitment costs. \nThis special event also marks an important milestone as we celebrate 20 years of partnership with Mulberry. We are delighted to be hosted by one of our valued employer partners and are incredibly grateful for their support over the past two decades in helping to develop skills\, nurture talent and create opportunities across our region. \nYou’ll gain an overview of the latest apprenticeship employer grants\, financial incentives and government funding designed to support recruitment and workforce development. We’ll cover topics including employer recruitment grants\, National Insurance savings for eligible apprentices\, Apprenticeship Levy transfers\, funded training opportunities and the financial support available to employers of all sizes. \nOur specialist team will explain what’s available\, who is eligible and how organisations in the creative and manufacturing sectors can maximise the support on offer.

To ensure as many organisations as possible can attend\, tickets are restricted to one representative per organisation and will be allocated on a first come\, first served basis. \nWe look forward to welcoming you for a morning of networking\, knowledge sharing and celebration.
