I feel like it helps me to improve my communication skills, and how to self reflect on my performance. It also teaches me new skills such as ICT, change management, and project management. This helps me perform better as I have gained a wide range of skills in the industry.

We host charity events, as well as support local charities that employees can get get involved in. We also host celebratory events employees can attend, such as when we reached 25 years of Intelect, we hosted a ball. I also get to attend some marketing events like Apprenticeship Expos.
