Current Works Ltd
Current Works was founded in 2014 by electrician Tom Hadley, who himself spent time in foster care as a child and was determined to create pathways for young people in similar circumstances. The apprenticeship programme has produced 18 fully qualified electricians, 14 of whom remain employed at Current Works.
