Last week, we hosted another successful skills demonstration at Coatbridge High School. This event was met with engagement from pupils who took a keen interest whilst MSPs Graham Simpson and Fulton MacGregor also enjoyed trying their skills.

📢 OUT NOW! 📖 Bulletin 504: roofing-today.co.uk/cr/AQi2sAMQ47W… A new proposal to significantly reduce the blood lead suspension levels allowed for lead workers could spell the end of lead use for #roofers. Also this week, NFRC held a parliamentary reception at Holyrood.

Another successful event at the Royal Highland Show last week. 👏 Every opportunity to get the roofing trade in front of young people is invaluable in our efforts to encourage they consider a career in the industry.
