Spaces are still available for next year's Carlisle Skills Fair.

More than 70 local businesses and training providers have already signed up for the event, which will take place on Thursday, January 23, 2025, from 2pm to 6.30pm at Carlisle College.

January's edition will be the 11th instalment of the fair.

Organiser John Stevenson said: "I am very proud that 2025 will see my 11th anniversary skills fair.

"I am delighted at the response from businesses in the area and the support I am seeing already, with many new employers joining us that have not previously attended.

"This year’s 2024 skills fair was extremely well attended by students, job seekers, local employers, and training providers, and it already looks like the 2025 event will be just as successful an event."
