Paul Takes Centre Stage at WorldSkills UK

Plumbing apprentice Paul Marshall is set to test his skills against some of the United Kingdom’s most accomplished students and apprentices during the WorldSkills UK National Finals in Greater Manchester on 15th-16th November.

In his quest to be named SkillPLUMB champion, Paul will have to tackle a complex task that involves the installation of a central heating system and hot/cold water system, incorporating a boiler, unvented hot water cylinder and associated pipework and bespoke designed copper radiators.

James Frew Managing Director Roddy Frew said: “I was delighted to learn that Paul has been selected to represent James Frew and West College Scotland at UK World Skills. He is an ambassador for James Frew and has consistently produced work of a very high standard. These types of experiences are essential for apprentices to test their practical skills and meta-skills and benchmark themselves against the best in the UK.”

We wish Paul all the very best in the final – good luck!
