THE BEST apprentices in Coventry have been rewarded for their efforts at an awards ceremony.
Six apprentices were nominated for the City of Coventry Freeman’s Guild’s seventh annual awards event, held at St Mary’s Guildhall.
Four of the entrants were from Jaguar Land Rover with the two remaining contenders working at Whitefriars Housing Group.

Judy Ryder, a member of the judging panel since the awards started, said: “The calibre of this year’s applicants was the highest we have seen since running the awards, and the decision for the panel was the toughest yet.
“The six finalists are truly inspirational and confirm your faith in the future of the city.” The winner of the ceremony, Stephen Mason, 22, walked away with a cheque for £1000.
The Jaguar Land Rover employee who works a car manufacturing plant has saved the company £500 already by changing their vehicle history recording system. He has also won a lord mayor’s award (showcasing car warehouses) for working on a community newsletter and helps out at a summer play scheme.
