As part of the three-year partnership, A-Plant will help improve the future prospects of young people, working on a range of voluntary programmes and community investment activities.
The Trust's Built Environment Leadership Group (BELG) is an industry-led initiative formed in 2006 by the biggest names in the Built Environment sector. Working in collaboration with The Trust, the BELG is helping provide access to opportunities in the sector for disadvantaged young people across the UK, as well as addressing wider employability issues around both the sector's skills gap, and ageing workforce.

Asif Latief, Marketing Director at A-Plant, said: "We are very proud to be a partner of The Prince's Trust and privileged to be able to help young people change their lives and, above all, believe in themselves.
"A-Plant is passionate about inspiring and attracting diverse, young talent and as a member of the charity's Built Environment Leadership Group we will be given the opportunity to provide a number of work experience placements for disadvantaged young people, which we are very excited about.
"We've supported The Prince's Trust for a number of years already and we are pleased to have begun supporting the charity's 'Get into Construction' programme which has been designed to support young people get a job within the construction sector and the team has begun exploring a range of other voluntary opportunities.
"We very much look forward to continuing to lend our support."
