Joshua then had a go at Plastering where he has continued to thrive and flourish with such confidence. His effort and engagement in this area allowed him to quickly pick up new skills, skills that he is now putting to good use as he has been employed full time by Norwood Limited doing drylining.
We wish Josh all the best in his future career!
