Bank supports charity's school work

Lloyds Bank is supporting a Manx charity's educational work in Island schools.

Junior Achievement runs classroom-based workshops for Isle of Man students each year about connecting school with the working world - and the initiative has now gained the support of over 20 employees at Lloyds.

Vikki Bolton - Lloyds' Ambassador for Junior Achievement - says both students and charity volunteers benefit from the experience and the young ones that learn from it will be better prepared for later life.

The charitys work reaches around 5,500 pupils across the Island each academic year helping them to develop knowledge and attitudes they need to succeed.
