Apprentices at Yamazaki Mazak have scooped an unprecedented three prizes at the annual Worcestershire Group Training Association awards ceremony. The three apprentices, all of whom are now working full-time at the Mazak facility in Worcester, picked up their awards at a special event held at Worcester Rugby Club.

Bethany Addis, 17, won Engineering Apprentice of the Year, the first ever female winner of the award. Harry Fuller, 17, who is in the second year of a four-year apprenticeship, won the Personal Development Award as part of his sheet metal apprenticeship. Finally, Joe Kennie, 21, won the Post-First Year Craft Apprentice of the Year Award. “These three awards are testament to the ‘can do’ attitude of all our apprentices, their enthusiasm and willingness to learn,” says Richard Smith, European group managing director at Yamazaki Mazak.
