|October 08, 2025
Five new apprentices are beginning their studies at Ayrshire College as part of Persimmon Homes' industry-leading training programme.
Joiners Davy Mutch and Daniel McNally, and bricklayers Cole Whiteford, Brandon Dekker and Lennon Boyd, have already been gaining hands-on experience on Persimmon construction sites across Ayrshire.
Their training will now be combined with time spent at Ayrshire College, strengthening the housebuilder's partnership with the region's leading construction college.
