Olympic sprinter backs jobs drive

IPB Communications has teamed up with Olympic gold medallist Darren Campbell to support a jobs drive in Moss Side, Manchester.

The sprint relay gold medallist attended the jobs workshop run by two IPB clients Bramall Construction and City South Manchester Housing Trust to encourage more youngsters to join the construction trade.

Darren Campbell was joined by former Big Brother contestant Lisa Huo, an apprentice plumber with Bramall Construction, who encouraged visitors to take part in taster sessions ranging from plumbing to tiling and plastering.

We gained coverage in media outlets including BBC Radio Manchester, Manchester Evening News, Daily Star, Key 103, Channel M and Cavendish Press Agency.

We also filmed the event, which can be watched here.
