STORIES FROM ACROSS THE NETWORK
We’ve built a fantastic partnership with local high schools, DYW School Coordinators, and the DYW Regional Team, who bring a dynamic and innovative approach to achieving the best outcomes for their pupils. Together, we wanted to create a series of projects that encourage critical thinking, teamwork, and an understanding of the wide variety of careers available in construction.
