The biggest disappointment we have to deal with every week, is turning people away because we cannot accommodate them at this time.
Not just youth either, many adults are desperate to get back to work and calling us all the time.
That is why we need further funding to give these others a chance.
Putting it in simple terms the rail industry needs to employ people as it is expanding etc. but a PTS course which is needed to be employed in the industry, can cost around £800-£1000.
The employers can not afford to subsidize these tickets any more and the employee cannot afford it either.
Catch 22, no one wins.
We get funding, take on these trainees, give them far more than just PTS, pass them onto to the railway industry.
Everyone wins, including the communities where they live.
