    With the increases in apprenticeship wage and minimum wage for young people, what can government do to encourage more SMEs to take on trainees? #budget #autumnstatement We totally welcome the news that the minimum wage for over 21s will rise from £11.44 to £12.21 and apprentices will get the biggest pay bump, from £6.40 to £7.55 an hour. Not that we've ever paid the apprenticeship wage, because it's too low to live on and discriminates against an older more diverse workforce. However, I do worry about what this does to SMEs wanting to take on apprentices. As the owner of a small business with 4 apprentices, I'm well aware of the extra costs in transport, insurance and time that are involved in taking them on. We do it because we want to invest in the long-term future of the industry and diversify the workforce. IMHO apprentices should have access to a University style loan that could go towards the costs of hiring an apprentice. We do it for degrees, why not for apprenticeship courses?

    No matter what the plan is for energy from our government, solar and heat pumps will still be an excellent investment for you now and into the future. What is so unique about investing in this type of technology? 1.) It’s an investment that pays you back and even earns you money in the future. Protect yourself from other people's decisions. 2.) You're investing in our planet. Be part of the “good" team, looking to do better for our future and our children. 3.) Make your home powerful. Turn your biggest asset, the place you love to call home, into a place that powers your life. We know it can seem like a massive investment. But that’s why it's so important to work with an experienced team. We’ve been installing longer than most. We’re invested in the future of this industry with our training programmes aimed at extending diversity. And we’re committed to battling the “ick” that comes with an emerging industry. We’re fighting against rogue installers. The belief that only some households can do this can be oversimplified! If other suppliers have turned you away, then definitely get in touch. Don’t fall for those touting grants. We can help you get clarity. We work towards the same goals - simplifying your life and dependency on energy companies or the flux of the economy while making your home more comfortable! Making your world better. Get in touch today! #solar #pension #ukbudget2024 #Budget2024 #budget #energysavings

    Many people are waiting on the edge of their seats for Chancellor Rachel Reeves’s first announcement. And let’s face it with the government warning it will contain "difficult decisions" and be "painful". It’s not a comfortable wait. But what if you could do something to make whatever announcement better? No matter what good or bad news is coming (we’re trying to be positive!), finding intelligent ways to invest, use a budget, or even inherit is just wise practice. We often see that investing in “green” or sustainability is considered a luxury or expensive. And while yes, we can’t pretend the initial outlay isn’t a relatively big number, on average, between £8,000 to £12,000, we think it’s time to change the perspective on this being an indulgence and realise this is about making a great investment for your future and the future of others. And even better! One that is going to pay you back in at least six different ways: 1. Significant Reduction in Energy Bills 2. Protection Against Rising Energy Prices 3. Increased Property Value 4. Long-term durability and Low Maintenance Costs 5. Opportunity for Additional Income through Energy Export 6. Better Long-Term Investment Returns Compared to Traditional Saving Options This isn’t money wasted on a nice to-have. It's money being used to turn your biggest asset, your home, into a tool to power your life. Discover more by reading our full blog or book a call now with us to secure your future - no waiting for an announcement necessary. https://ow.ly/apPW50TUK4r #investmentopportunities #payback #financialsecurity #finances #greenenergy #poweryourhome #budget #ChancellorRachelReeves

    Last weekend our founder Leah was one of the speakers at FullyCharged.SHOW & Everything Electric helping to explain how to get a #heatpump for your home. Worried that heat pumps are only for new builds? Or that they’re noisy and expensive? Let’s clear that up! Modern heat pumps are quiet, energy-efficient, and work beautifully in older homes, too. Whether you're looking to upgrade from a gas boiler or build a sustainable home from the ground up, heat pumps offer a clean, cost-effective way to heat your home all year round. And with government grants available, making the switch has never been easier! By making your home powerful, you ensure a brighter and warmer future. A great investment for those heading into retirement or families wanting stability in energy prices. 💡 Ready to upgrade your heating system? We’re here to help. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/e_NBczRm #solar #mythsandmisinformation #inheritance #powerful #homeimprovements #inheritance #energybills
