Brammer, the distributor of industrial maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) products and services, plans to formally recognise the importance of apprentices to the future of British industry by rewarding top students around the country with prizes and the title 'Apprentice of the Year'.

The title is open to all UK-based companies operating an apprenticeship scheme, as well as colleges providing training courses in engineering or key trades.

The scheme complements a similar initiative run for several years by Buck & Hickman, the distributor of tools, maintenance and health and safety products, which joined the Brammer Group in 2011.

Brammer and Buck & Hickman will donate prizes for the winning apprentice in each company, which include a certificate, trophy and £100 in vouchers for the acclaimed Roebuck tool range which is exclusively available to Brammer and Buck & Hickman. Each apprentice registered will receive £10 in Roebuck vouchers.

Ian Ritchie, managing director of Brammer and Buck & Hickman, explained: "Throughout our history, we have been involved in meeting the ever-changing needs of British industry for MRO products and we have seen many apprentices grow to become leaders in the sector.

"Having our own Apprentice of the Year Awards once again demonstrates our backing of the UK's future industrial leaders and we look forward to learning about the commitments our future generations are making to engineering."
