THE BUILDING BLOCK 

About The Building Block

The Building Block was set up in 2015 to help members of the public learn and develop practical skills, helping them to save money in their projects, as well as allowing people to discover new trades and even start their journey towards a new career.

In 2024 we partnered with GLP Training who are a  nationally recognised, Ofsted Grade 2 “Good” apprenticeship training provider that has transformed the career paths of countless individuals across the UK and beyond. As a trusted partner to leading organisations both domestically and internationally, they have built a reputation for delivering exceptional training programmes that have a lasting, meaningful impact on the lives of our learners and the success of our clients.

Our mission for the partnership is to enable the local community to participate in workshops and learn or develop new skills, creating a sense of belonging to members that share the same interest.
