Taylor Made, based in Fareham, has welcomed Max Laskey and Sam Barker to its apprenticeship programme. The pair will become part of the business’s growing IT support team and receive training on cyber security and IT.

Managing director Nigel Taylor said: ‘It’s important to us to create employment opportunities for local people. There’s no shortage of talent.’

Sam, 16, said: ‘ I absolutely love IT and want to get straight into it rather than going to college. Getting paid to earn while I learn is a bonus too.’
