Building Heroes Wales - Course dates for the 2024/2025 academic year:

Building Heroes has been an incredible journey of empowerment and skill-building for countless individuals, and we're excited to bring this opportunity back to Wales and Southwest England for the next year! Whether you are a service leaver, a veteran, a reservist, or a military family member, we want to support our military community in being part of this life-changing experience.

Our programme is designed to equip our learners with essential skills, boost career prospects, and provide a supportive community that understands the unique challenges faced by those who have served or are connected to the military. We provide a Level 1 Construction qualification, Level 1 Health and Safety, and a CSCS card. The course includes instruction in plastering, tiling, painting and decorating, bricklaying, plumbing, and carpentry.

Below are the dates for the first three courses in Cardiff for the 2024/2025 academic year:

09/09/24 - 11/10/24

11/11/24 - 13/12/24

06/01/25 - 07/02/25

To find out more information and enrol on our course, please visit our website or feel free to contact me for an informal chat. https://www.buildingheroes.org.uk/courses/foundation-in-property-maintenance.

We also kindly ask for your support in raising awareness this opportunity within your communities. Our goal is to assist as many members of the Armed Forces community as possible on their journey to successful civilian lives. Please share the attached flyer far and wide and encourage anyone interested to apply by visiting our website.

We eagerly look forward to welcoming and supporting many more learners from across the armed forces communities into the Building Heroes family!

Warmest regards,
