BRADFORD, U.K. - eTradeWire -- In partnership with CBRE, the action-packed event brings together teams of apprentices and their employers for a day of fun, themed challenges.

Teams in attendance for 2025 included JCT600, Bradford City AFC, Bradford Bulls, Northern Pump Supplies, Aptem, RMA Systems, and CBRE.

Following a complimentary breakfast in The Grove Restaurant, energised participants moved around various challenges across David Hockney Building and the newly refurbished Higher Level STEM facility, Garden Mills.
