  13. Sir, As the FT reports every day, business is a competitive environment. Rarely does the entire business community come together passionately over one specific topic. Apprenticeships are an exception. We all, as leaders in business, support apprenticeships, and 85,000 of us have made a personal commitment to them – by employing apprentices in our own companies. The spending review recently announced funding for an extra 75,000 apprenticeship places and today we have joined forces to urge other employers to consider how apprenticeships could help their businesses We know that apprenticeships provide people with enhanced employment opportunities, and are a great way to learn. Supporting the growth of this programme will build a great legacy and ensure that we all support the business leaders of tomorrow.
