Is The UK's Construction Industry Modern Enough?

This week on Clive's Little Bit Extra, we're looking at how the construction industry is modernising-from bringing real-world trade experience into the classroom, to rethinking work-life balance and building client trust in a changing market.🛠️ Brian Berry, Chief Executive of the Federation of Master Builders (FMB), breaks down the latest market stats, why a third of homeowners hold back on jobs due to trust, and how smart builders are modernising their business models to focus on quality, mental health, and family time.🌱 Carly Sidebottom, Assistant Principal at Leeds College of Building, dives into a £6.7m funding boost for trade education, why modern teaching relies on ex-tradespeople on the tools, and how early technical training for 14-year-olds can help future-proof the sector.👉 Subscribe to Clive's Little Bit Extra for more conversations about life in the trades, mental health, wellbeing, construction industry issues, and the topics that matter most to tradespeople across the UK.Catch Clive on Fix Radio weekdays from 12–3.Catch Clive On Fix Radio Monday - Thursday 12 PM - 3 PM Across The UK On DAB Radio And Online At https://www.fixradio.co.uk/
