[QUOTE="melted welly, post: 7902937, member: 37168"] Would you consider an apprentice? there’s the modern agricultural apprenticeship scheme, facilitated by sruc. When I got our lad on it there was a £5k training fund which will see him through the PAs, chainsaw, 1st aid, H&S, various forklift tickets, plus ppe. Can be rolled into I think a “technical apprenticeship” which would progress them into more of the management side as well. Depends on getting the right candidate of course, but so far it has worked very well for us. There’s also no age limit, my apprentice is 24 and came from a fabrication background, which is a massive boost. He even knows what all the buttons do on the welder. [/QUOTE]
