John Stevenson, former MP for Carlisle, will be organising and hosting his 11th Skills Fair on Thursday 23rd January 2025, 2-630pm at Carlisle College.
Commenting John said,
“One of my proudest achievements has been organising and hosting the annual Carlisle Skills Fair. This year saw the best yet, with record numbers of employers, training providers, young people and job seekers attending.
I was amazed that so many people contacted me after the election and asked if I would keep this going and organise the 11th in 2025. With the continued support of organisations like Inspira, Carlisle College and Carlisle Job Centre, I could not say no.
Bringing job seekers, and young people in particular, together with skills providers and employers with the jobs of the future, is so important for the future prosperity of our area. I want everyone in Carlisle and North Cumbria to be able to grasp the opportunities on offer and be happy and successful in life. The skills fair is the perfect way to help people be equipped with the right skills and experience for those jobs and careers.”
