Meet the Apprentices that are shaping our future
Published: 5/2/2025
National Apprenticeship Week is a time to celebrate the positive impact apprenticeships offer and the incredible apprentices at One Vision Housing! This special week gives us the opportunity to shine a spotlight on their talent and dedication. Let’s meet some of our rising stars!
Meet our Apprentices!
Grace Lowe, Customer Service Apprentice, embarked on her apprenticeship journey in September 2024, and she’s already making waves. She has developed a wealth of professional skills and is thriving in her role.
Grace shared her enthusiastic experience:
“I knew college wasn’t the right path for me, and I was eager to start building my career after school. I’ve gained so many valuable skills, such as communication, patience, active listening, and problem-solving. Shadowing opportunities in different departments have broadened my understanding of the business. My apprenticeship has been amazing in building my confidence and helping me to be myself. The support from OVH has been incredible! Everyone is so helpful, and I never hesitate to ask questions. I would absolutely recommend an apprenticeship with OVH to others considering one. The welcoming, kind, and supportive environment helps you reach your full potential!”
Dominic Riding, Community Safety Advisor Apprentice, joined us in in September 2023, and his apprenticeship journey has been inspiring.
Dominic revealed his positive progress:
“I chose an apprenticeship with One Vision Housing because I was drawn to their reputation and the career development opportunities they offer. I’ve learned so much, both professionally and personally. Time management and proactivity are skills I’ll carry with me for life. I’m also developing vital job-specific skills, such as recognising the signs of vulnerable individuals and knowing how to handle sensitive situations effectively. The support, education, and training I’ve received have been excellent, from online and in-person training sessions to the constant support of my Community Safety Team. They have all contributed to my growth at OVH. If you are interested in the technical side of the housing industry, I highly recommend an apprenticeship with OVH!”
