Paul Raybould, our senior mechanic, is marking an impressive milestone this August – it has been 50 years since he first began his career as an apprentice!
On 5 August 1974, at the age of 16, Paul started his apprenticeship at Bradburn & Wedge, a Wolverhampton garage that was founded in 1915 by William Howard Bradburn out of a former horse tramp depo on Darlington Street.
Paul’s career has now come full circle, as he’s back working within a Bradburn & Wedge garage again – in our workshop based on the frontage of the Darlington Street premise.
“I’m incredibly proud to have started my career at Bradburn & Wedge and to now be finishing it working on these beautiful old vehicles,” Paul says. “It’s come full circle in the best possible way.”
Congratulations, Paul!
