Pupils from a primary school in Droitwich had a look into career opportunities involving the business park sector.

Potter Space, a commercial property business, opened the gates of its Droitwich Park to pupils from Cutnall Green C of E Primary School, to show them what goes into the thriving business park and inspire them to consider the different career options.

The visit centred on the park’s newest unit, 103, which is under construction.

Pupils gained insights into the planning, development, construction, and management of the park.

This was inclusive of understanding construction techniques and safety measures on-site.

John Royle, head of construction at Potter Space, said: "It was fantastic to welcome the Cutnall Green pupils to Potter Space Droitwich.

"I’m particularly passionate about inspiring more young people to see the career opportunities available across the construction industry.

"There is huge demand for more space in the industrial & logistics sector in particular, so hopefully seeing our £18 million investment into our Droitwich Park might inspire children when considering their career options.”

Alongside this, pupils engaged in practical tasks by mapping out their individual buildings on unit 103's floor, followed by constructing a drainage system.

Potter Space also arranged for the children to meet their newest customer, Falcon Contract Flooring, to observe what running a business from a brand-new unit entails.

Elliot Garbett, managing director of Falcon Contract Flooring, said: "Sustainability is high on our agenda, and we hope that the visit will inspire the children to imagine what could be possible in the future."

Benjamin King, headteacher at Cutnall Green, said: "By exposing them to a diverse array of career opportunities within the industry, we are providing them with invaluable insights that will help them make informed decisions about their future career paths."
