A career in the landscape
Sam studied Uniformed Public services at college, with a view to joining the Police when he left. However, at just 18, he was told he’d need more life experience before he would be considered. Looking around for ways to get that experience, he found an apprenticeship at Hambrooks, a horticulture and landscaping business.
