A grace period of 21 days is in place for all parking permit holders. This means you can display your parking permit for 21 days after the expiry date printed on it. As long as you've submitted your renewal application and you're parked according to the conditions of your current parking permit, you will not receive a fine.
Graduation ceremony for Brighton & Hove apprentices
Brighton & Hove’s 2024 Apprenticeship Graduation will take place on Monday 25 November to celebrate the achievements of apprentices from across the city.
The ceremony will take place at The Grand Brighton, who are also the event's headline sponsor.
The ceremony, which is being organised by The Sussex Council of Training Providers, will include inspirational talks and special award presentations.
The event will allow apprentices of all ages, levels, and sectors to celebrate their achievements with their friends, family, and colleagues.
The graduation ceremony is free to attend and available to apprentices who live or work in Brighton & Hove and achieved their apprenticeship between 21 October 2023 and 1 November 2024. Graduates may also bring up to 2 guests.
Apprentice employers and training providers from across Brighton & Hove are also invited to join in the celebrations.
Councillor Emma Daniel, Cabinet Member for Children, Families and Youth Services, said: “Apprenticeships are a fantastic way of learning while earning, developing life skills and gaining hands-on experience in a wide range of careers.
“Apprenticeships also offer employers the opportunity to support and retain staff, fill skills gaps with talented local candidates, and increase staff productivity while meeting their businesses’ needs.
“We’re inviting all apprentices and their employers to join us at this year’s graduation ceremony, which is free to attend, to celebrate the achievements of apprentices and the important contributions all those involved in apprenticeships across Brighton & Hove.”
