Apprentice Support Programme (ASP)
Apprentice Support Programme (ASP)
The ASP delivers financial grants and practical assistance to apprentices and their families.
An apprentice going through a rough patch at home that puts their work performance at risk needs support to allow progression, and achieve a lifetime of productive, satisfying work.
Supporting the industry through education is a key focus for the Electrical Industries Charity and the launch of the Apprenticeship Support Programme is designed to help young people deal with some of the key challenges that affect them as they embark on their career.

Client Story
Overcoming Struggles and Shaping a New Path
For a young apprentice, life took a downward spiral when the allure of partying led to a cocaine addiction. His commitment to his work as an apprentice suffered, raising concerns among his colleagues and managers.
A crucial turning point came when he experienced a close call with a severe injury while under the influence. Recognising the need for change, he reached out to his family and supervisor, acknowledging his struggle and seeking help.
Seeking a fresh start, he engaged in local support resources, but faced disappointment due to feeling misunderstood. In his pursuit of personalised assistance, he approached our charity, expressing the need for one-on-one guidance. We connected him with Ross Hyslop, a specialist with expertise in providing individualised support.
Through dedicated sessions and the unwavering support of the charity, the apprentice embarked on a transformative journey. His determination to overcome his challenges, combined with the guidance he received, led to remarkable progress. He emerged stronger, empowered, and with a renewed mindset, showcasing the potential for personal growth even in the face of adversity.
