Gibraltar’s representation at the Labour Party Conference continued yesterday evening with the Gibraltar Reception hosted by the Chief Minister Fabian Picardo and featuring a keynote speech by the UK Minister for Europe and the Overseas Territories Stephen Doughty MP.
Yesterday evening the first cadre of police trainees for 2014 completed their first year in service. The initiative was kick started by the RGP and the Ministry for Enterprise and Training and saw six youngsters aged sixteen and seventeen experience ‘serving the public and Gibraltar alongside police officers, whilst participating in a structured training and development programme.’ Five of the six trainees completed the year long course.
Throughout the last couple of months young people involved in this year’s youth exchange have been very busy fundraising for their exchange project.
Last month they organised a photography fundraiser, offering the popular Project ID and family portraits. The group would like to extend a massive thank you to those who came along to have their photo taken and supported the project.
