Gloucester Rugby has announced that it will be hosting hundreds of job seekers on 11 September for the Gloucestershire Jobs, Skills & Apprenticeships Liftoff 2020 event.
The event will be co-hosted by Richard Graham, MP for Gloucester and Gloucester Rugby.
Keynote speakers include minister for employment, Mims Davies MP and apprenticeship and skills minister, Gillian Keegan MP.
Head of venue sales for Gloucester Rugby Angela Sanders, said: “Covid-19 secure measures include not just track and trace, temperature checking, masks and sanitiser stands, but a limit on the number of people allowed in the stadium at any one time as well as a one way system through the venue and use of outside space.
“Pulling this event together has been a significant challenge for us as a venue to ensure both safety of attendees and the meeting of government guidelines. We have been particularly lucky to have the support of several MPs from the region as well as the local councils – ensuring we stay within the rules as well as best-practice.”
In addition to the keynotes, a full programme of skills and advice sessions will run throughout the day, which will also be live streamed across the event website.
MPs supporting the event include: Siobhan Baillie, MP for Stroud; Alex Chalk, MP for Cheltenham; Sir Geoffrey Clifton-Brown, MP for the Cotswolds; Laurence Robertson, MP for Tewksbury and Rt Hon Mark Harper, MP for the Forest of Dean.
