Open day at Ceredigion farm to showcase apprenticeships

The event will be held at Llettytwppa Farm in Ceredigion on March 6 from 10am to 3pm.

It will give visitors a chance to learn about the farm’s apprenticeship scheme and hear more about plans for the site.

The day follows an earlier engagement evening and two well-attended open days held in December 2025, which welcomed 160 secondary school pupils from Ceredigion.

Councillor Bryan Davies, leader of Ceredigion County Council, said: "I would encourage anyone interested in taking Level 2 or 3 apprenticeship courses in the future to pop into Llettytwppa Farm during our open day to find out more about the opportunities available.

"We would also like to invite families of the prospective learners, friends, organisations, businesses, and the wider community too.

"Llettytwppa farm will play a key role in developing the skills people need to stay in their communities to learn, live and succeed."

The open day is aimed at anyone interested in agricultural or rural sector courses.

Visitors will be able to meet industry professionals and explore activities, exhibitions, and hands-on demonstrations.

From September 2026, Hyfforddiant Ceredigion Training will offer Level 2 Foundation Apprenticeships and Level 3 Apprenticeships at Llettytwppa Farm.

Practical demonstrations on the day will include fencing, making a poker with a gas furnace, maintenance tasks such as re-roofing, installing water pipes, making brake hoses, and a soldering task.

Those wishing to attend are asked to register by contacting Hyfforddiant Ceredigion Training by email at info@ceredigion.org.uk or by calling 01970 633040.

Parking will be available at UWTSD's Lampeter University campus, with transport provided to and from the farm. Attendees are advised to wear appropriate clothing and footwear.

Dogs are not permitted, except for guide dogs.
