To mark the start of this festive season, we’re saying a huge thank you to all our levy gifting employers for £1.2m of life changing gifted funds this year.
Over the past 12 months, our employer partners have gifted an incredible £1.2m of unused levy funds which has resulted in an amazing 178 apprentices starting their training in 2021.
Not only has every pound of gifted funds allowed learners to take up their first role, progress in their current role or even change roles, but it has helped to bridge sector skills gaps and enabled SMEs to boost their business.
The levy funds have been spent across a wide variety of sectors, from Dentistry and Health Care to Business Admin and Operations Management.
Over the past year, we’ve featured our fantastic employers who have gifted their funds:
In addition, our 2020 levy gifting employers Apleona, BP, Eon and Metroline have returned to re-pledge their unused funds, helping to provide even more apprenticeships in their chosen sectors and create opportunities for all.
Beckie Holmes, Levy gifting manager, said: “We are so thankful to all our levy gifting employers who are making a real difference to the lives of learners and to the businesses themselves.
Many SMEs have faced another challenging 12 months but our generous employers have given them the best gift of all, the gift of training, so staff are able to upskill through apprenticeships and SMEs can futureproof their business.
“Levy gifting is a win-win scenario - not only does it solve recruitment needs in a socially responsible way but it also helps businesses to grow their own talent, giving staff the right skills and training to succeed.
“Levy gifting is simple yet effective and I welcome all employers to get in touch and find out how we can help you to make a real impact with your unused funds”
