News: Harworth Estates join Prince's Trust leadership group
Harworth Estates, the property division of mining company UK COAL, is the first major business in Yorkshire to back an initiative by The Prince's Trust focused on developing the skills of young people needed to support the construction industry.
The charity has established a network of national sector-based Leadership Groups, with Harworth Estates being the first to sign up from the Yorkshire and The Humber region to support the national Construction and Business Services Group, which focuses on upskilling disadvantaged young people for careers in construction and related industries.
Michael Jones, Harworth Estates construction and development director, says: "UK COAL continues to be a major employer, directly and indirectly, in the Yorkshire region, and with our regeneration plans for the future, we have the chance to create new opportunities for disadvantaged young people in the construction industry and the future facilities management that will follow.
"We believe that working in unison with The Prince's Trust, we and other businesses can focus resources into the training and development of the skills needed to ensure Yorkshire and the Humber region benefits from harnessing the enthusiasm and abilities of our young people, giving them new opportunities and a rewarding career path through involvement in the regeneration of their own communities."
UK Coal has submitted plans to develop the 300 hectare former coal mining and industrial site at Waverley in Rotherham.
