The finalists of the Bristol and Bath Apprenticeship Awards 2022 have been announced.
The event is set to return to Ashton Gate Stadium in Bristol, with a ceremony taking place on Tuesday, May 17 (6.30pm to 11pm) to recognise the achievements of apprentices working and learning in both cities.
The awards, which are run by BristolLive and our sister websites SomersetLive and BusinessLive , recognise excellence across a wide range of sectors from apprentices and the organisations creating opportunities for the region's future business leaders.
