Trainees at The Hamlet at Three Sisters near Wigan were delighted to welcome the Earl of Wessex on 7th November, when he officially opened The Hamlet’s new facilities. Although an exceptionally wet day, Prince Edward was given a very warm welcome as Trainees enthusiastically showed him around and treated him to Afternoon Tea in the cafe.
Trainees also performed a live piece of music that they had produced for their Duke of Edinburgh Award. The Ian Karten Charitable Trust provided funding to establish Lakeside Printing at The Hamlet, The Earl was very interested in the Karten Centre and the work-related opportunities available to trainees.
