A huge well done to Ameon’s Tom Desjardines who has been named the North West Regional Apprentice of the Year at the JTL Regional Apprentice Awards 🏆👏

The awards celebrate excellence in apprenticeship training and highlight the dedication, skill and commitment demonstrated by individuals helping to shape the future of the building services engineering sector.

Tom completed his four-year electrical apprenticeship with us through JTL and Preston College, before being employed by Ameon and recently becoming a supervisor.

He said: ‘Doing an apprenticeship in an area you’re interested in is a great way to make real life connections and paths for your future, and it was definitely the right choice for me.

‘To win the award felt like I had achieved something great following my journey from school to now. It was a moment for that to be recognised professionally, which made me even more motivated to develop further.

‘I’m so grateful for the training and support I’ve received from Ameon’s project management team, which has enabled me to develop my career and achieve my goals.’

Tom will now attend the national awards ceremony, which takes place in London on June 10.

Good luck Tom, we’re all rooting for you🤞

A huge well done to Ameon's John Ward who recently competed in the final of Dance Floor Heroes, a ballroom dancing event organised to raise money for a charity which supports mental health and physical wellbeing through dance 🪩

Electrician John took to the Winter Gardens Blackpool's Empress Ballroom dancefloor in aid of Tia's Crown, performing a paso doble with professional partner Wendy. Though they weren't crowned champions, John more than did himself proud, raising an amazing £3,800 for the charity in the process (the highest amount of any of the finalists 👏).

Prior to the final, John also took part in a 'wax off' to raise additional funds - unfortunately, we've no footage from that one to share 👀

John's going to continue his hobby of dancing along with his wife Sallyanne and has also signed up to take part in a team routine in November for the same cause.

John said: 'I'm so thankful to everyone who made a donation in support of Tia's Crown. When I was asked to enter this competition, I was a bit unsure at first. But after seeing the work Tia's Crown has done for people and how dance helps, it was a no-brainer. Well done to all the finalists and everyone involved in making this happen - it really was a fantastic night with lots of funds raised for the charity. Between all the contestants we raised around £24,000 in total and I feel proud and humble to have raised the highest amount.'

Excellent work John 🕺

“His promotion also demonstrates our continued objective to develop and expand our departments and teams internally, while continuing to deliver the highest standard of services. I’ve no doubt that his experience and expertise will see him continue to strengthen this area of the business. Well done Tom.”
