Our Activities in the South
of Scotland
| “The Construction Learning Accounts have provided
a much appreciated helping hand in the organising of priorities
and helping to fund staff training. It is a great idea!
The CLAs help small businesses to move forward. The BCIF
and the CLAs go hand in hand to make business life easier
for construction companies in the Borders.”
