BPIF exhibit at Leeds Apprenticeship Recruitment Fair

BPIF exhibit at Leeds Apprenticeship Recruitment Fair

Leeds Apprenticeship Recruitment Fair (LARF) took place on Monday 3 February. It was our second year exhibiting, supported by Communisis, Heidelberg, CyanX, and Stationers.

BPIF's stand was provided free of charge by Smurfitt Kappa, with additional samples from Falconer and Olympus.

LARF reported 6123 students attended and 114 exhibitors.

The team spoke to between 350-400 students and parents providing information and guidance on the print industry and apprenticeships.

Our supporting member's feedback was very positive and the team were impressed with the stand banners, and literature available to promote careers within the print industry.

The team enjoyed the event and were happy with the calibre of the potential apprentices.

Would they do it again? Definitely. The team are keen to link future LARF events into the BPIF School Engagement Initiative.

For further information on LARF or BPIF's School Engagement Initiative please contact Darren Shepherd Regional Director for the North.
