OTH project has proved an excellent casing point for
skills development and how this approach can help a
project succeed.
As an accredited Living Wage Employer, Recclesia is
committed to developing and training its specialist
workforce whilst ensuring that our apprentice staff can
afford to train in heritage skills on a long-term basis, and
that we create a meaningful skills legacy for not only the
Manchester and North Wales areas where we’re based
but nationwide. This approach is vital in the Conservation & Heritage sector as skills are integral for the success
of any heritage project and the work on Manchester Town
Hall was an exemplary case. Ensuring everyone was
supporting one another’s development and learning from
each other is the only way of ultimately securing traditional conservation skills and craftsmanship for the future.
