Sponsorship Pack
The Bristol and Bath Apprenticeships Awards recognise both businesses that help drive apprenticeship schemes across our cities as well as those apprentices. In their first year the awards are an amalgamation of the Bristol Post and Bath Chronicle Apprenticeship Awards and were a great success. The awards were held at the Bristol Marriott, City Centre on 18th June 2014.
