PARENTS are not doing enough to encourage children into housebuilding, new research from the NHBC Foundation fi nds.
Four out of 10 parents (42 per cent) say that they would not encourage their children, aged 11 or over, to pursue a career in the housebuilding industry, according to new research by the NHBC Foundation.
The findings have raised concern that a lack of parental support may be preventing youngsters from pursuing a hugely rewarding career in one of the UK’s most successful and thriving industries at a time of huge demand for high quality new homes.
