Can’t believe no one has jumped at this. Too far north for me and no chance of relocating as the other half is very settled into her nurse role locally.
Aspirational setup you have there!

Plenty interested but not from anyone suitable, like I said I can't take on a complete new starter as haven't got the time to spend with them, if I could find another decent experienced lad I would be willing to take a student for the work based experience section of their course.
Thought I'd found a lad but when ALL previous employment declined to give reference other than to confirm he had worked for them alarm bells started ringing!

Was really hoping to have got something sorted by now as going to have to take wife to hospital every day for 3 weeks for her radio therapy.

John, it’s not uncommon now for people to only give that kind of reference (they are shit scared of being sued if they say someone is good and it turns out they aren’t).

 

It sounds a bit ominous, I admit, but it’s not necessarily the lads fault.

How long he worked for these firms might give you a clue to his employability.

None more than 8 month's with some gaps in-between which is also a bit strange.

I'm with Bolam, if the lad is keen grab him. References, CV's, jog on.
Keen but very non committal about doing a few trial days even when I said don't worry you'll be getting paid for them.
