Paint & Panel's UK columunist Chris Oliver sent in his column for the May/June issue with the link to an inspiring video. He has been involved in an initiative to encourage young people into the industry and to have them trained as multi-skilled tradesmen. You can read about this in the next issue of the magazine but in the meantime Oliver says: "One of the great initiatives we have set up is a Skills Showcase Event. It is not rocket science, which is just as well, because I can just about fix cars but when it comes to rockets I struggle.
"Check out the video below and ignore the diamond cockney geezer who ruins it, but listen to the young people. Their appetite, enthusiasm and energy are infectious. Change is coming. It would be great to hear from you and what you think change should look like," he said.
