On 29 November 2016, over 100 staff, delegates and apprentices turned out to Royal Arsenal Riverside for the first Berkeley Group Apprentice Awards, recognising the talent of apprentices young and old throughout Berkeley's business operations.
The morning saw presentations from senior Berkeley directors, interviews, group discussions on how to encourage more young people into the construction industry, plus the main event with apprentices from various business areas being both highly commended and winning individual awards.
