BOS Bus Urgent Appeal

(BOS) Building Our Skills – Making Fenestration a Career of Choice has opened a GoFundMe page to raise money to hire minibuses and coaches to help get schoolkids to its careers fairs at the start of March. 

The organisation wants to step in to help those schools who do not have their own transport to come along and learn about the industry. BOS is in the final stages of its planning for two bespoke airs as a part of National Careers Week.

The events will feature over 30 of the industry’s best known names who are aiming to talk to over 1,000 students about 50 careers that are available if they look at the fenestration, glass and glazing sector as their career of choice.

 

What to do?

All donations, whether £5 personally or a corporate donation will be hugely welcome and greatly appreciated.

You can learn more about the two events that Building Our Skills is promoting and is then looking to roll out across other areas of the country in a flipbook brochure.
