Transport Minister visits Dover Marine Festival
People from across East Kent visited Dover’s cruise terminal for a two day maritime careers festival last month. One of the main attractions on display was the state of the art troop carrier Royal Fleet Auxiliary (RFA) Mounts Bay.
Iain Shepherd, Marine South East Chair ran a stand at the event advising young people on careers in the marine industry and had some very positive conversations with post graduates looking to move into a career in marine electronics.
Iain Shepherd also welcomed Transport Minister Dr Stephen Ladyman to the stand and talked to him about the importance of the marine industry in the local area and the need to find suitably skilled workers.
