AND FINALLY Selco donates to the next generation
Selco Builders Warehouse has donated thousands of pounds worth of materials to college students carrying out trade and construction courses around the country.
Students have also been invited into Selco branches to learn more about how a builders merchant operates and the relationship it has with tradespeople. Enda Mulloy, deputy head of construction at West London College, said: “The Selco partnership is
proving a fantastic initiative and an absolutely invaluable experience for learners. “A builders merchant plays such a significant role in the life of a tradesperson that introducing our learners to them so early in their careers will stand them in really good stead.
“The materials and tools that Selco has kindly donated has also been an incredible help. We want our learners to carry out as much practical work as possible but that comes at a significant cost which we wouldn’t be able to meet without donations such as the one Selco has made.
