Celebrating National Apprenticehsip Week

National Apprenticeship Week is an opportunity to recognise the role apprenticeships play in building skilled, sustainable workforces.

This year’s theme, Skills for Life, highlights how apprenticeships equip individuals with long-term, transferable skills while supporting business growth and workforce development.

As part of Apprentice Wednesday, we’re pleased to recognise one of our team members who is currently completing a Professional Embalmer Qualification. Having joined us at 18, she has been training alongside our experienced embalmers while working full-time — gaining valuable hands-on experience every step of the way. 👏

As a leading employer across Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire, we are committed to developing talent and creating clear career pathways through apprenticeship opportunities.

Tyla commented: “From a young age, I have always found science and biology fascinating, so when I was looking at what I wanted to follow as a career path, I found embalming, and it instantly clicked for me. I have been fortunate enough to work at Neville Funerals full-time while I complete my apprenticeship, and the support from the team has transformed my learning, understanding and development.”
