Craig Slater from Wigan is an apprentice from Alliance Learning and has been at Hovis for 8 months.

He decided not to take the traditional route to university because of the debts he might incur.

Instead he chose an apprenticeship as it's "a cost effective way of getting a career. I can earn money and learn at the same time."

Craig would like to see an increase in apprentice wages.

He feels a lot of people aren't choosing to do apprenticeships because the minimum wage is higher elsewhere.
