HepcoMotion apprentice wins prestigious regional award
A talented young apprentice from Tiverton-based HepcoMotion has won a prestigious regional apprentice award at this year’s EEF Future Manufacturing Awards. Against strong competition, Matthew, aged 20, received gold in the First Year Higher Apprent
The award recognises the outstanding contribution being made by manufacturing apprentices across the region. The award is highly-respected and hotly contested with winners selected by a panel of judges drawn from business leaders, industry experts and academics.
Matthew beat off competition from across the region and won the title after impressing judges with his commitment, ambition and drive to pursue a career in manufacturing. Judges said they had been overwhelmed by the high calibre of apprentices nominated this year, making Matthew’s win even more of an achievement.
Matthew is now in the running for the national title where he will go head-to-head with regional winners from across the UK at the national awards gala in London in January next year.
