Voices

What our apprentices say

‘ I'd heard a lot of good things about Bell, so I wanted to have a look for myself. Everyone was very friendly during the taster session and showed me a lot. I learned a lot about the job and they took enough time to explain everything. For example, I've already learned how to cut up half a pig, make sausage meat and much more.‘
