Learner Placement Leads to Meaningful Career
In 2021, learner Lois Denatale began a placement with Caerphilly-based business Sauce – previously Print Sauce. Lois was a driven teenager eager to get experience in the workplace while working towards her Business Administration apprenticeship. Fast forward four years and Lois is still going strong at the South Wales signage company – now a highly-skilled and experienced member of the team. Lois initially discovered the opportunity through her ACT assessor, Michelle Marshall. 'I was on placement when I found out there might be an apprenticeship opportunity with Sauce,' Lois explained. 'The role appealed to me because it was very varied and no two days were the same. The apprenticeship let me start without experience and learn on the job.' Sauce is known for producing bespoke signage and vehicle graphics for a range of clients including Warner Bros, Cardiff University, Cardiff Met, the University of South Wales, and Monmouthshire Council. While there were some initial uncertainties about offering placements to young workers, it was always something Gary Bagstaff, the company's director, was eager to try. 'I grew up in Caerphilly and so supporting the local community has always been important to me,' Gary said. 'For us to be able to give a young person from the town an opportunity makes me feel proud – it's also good for the business. 'Before we got in touch with ACT, I was a little daunted about what was involved in taking on an apprentice or a young learner. It wasn't something I knew anything about, but once I spoke to ACT it was really straightforward. They came out to see us and the process was simple from day one. I'd recommend it to any business.' Over the years, Lois has taken on increasing responsibility within the team and, despite now completing her studies, continues to find enjoyment and new skills within the work. 'My initial placement has now evolved into a full-time job. It's brilliant working here, it's a really fun job to do. 'The placement helped me to develop my communication skills and make me feel more confident in speaking with customers,' she added. 'Everyone helped me feel valued and part of the team.' ACT is encouraging more employers to support Jobs Growth Wales+ learners aged 16 to 19 through real-world work placements. By working with ACT, businesses can play a vital role in developing young talent, shaping future professionals, and bringing fresh perspectives into their teams. In turn, learners gain confidence, resilience, and invaluable skills that can't be taught in the classroom.

NFL Star Sauce Gardner Partners with Q-Collar to Promote Athlete Safety and Brain Health
The New York Jets All-Pro cornerback becomes an official Q-Collar ambassador after using the device during the 2024 NFL season NORWALK, Conn., July 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- NFL star and All-Pro cornerback Sauce Gardner has officially joined forces with the Q-Collar, developed by Q30 Innovations as the first and only FDA-cleared sports equipment proven to help protect the brain from repetitive head impacts. After wearing the Q-Collar throughout the 2024 NFL season, Gardner now has become an official partner, continuing his commitment to performance and player safety into the 2025 season and beyond. Gardner first discovered the Q-Collar in 2024 while researching ways to enhance his protection on the field. After purchasing one for himself and experiencing its benefits firsthand, the decision to join the Q-Collar team as an official partner was natural. 'We all know football is a physical sport with action and contact on every play,' said Gardner. 'I'm always looking for ways to stay safe, comfortable and confident while I play, and the Q-Collar checked every box. It's lightweight, durable and I love the way it looks. But more importantly, it gives me peace of mind knowing I'm taking the extra step to better protect my brain while still playing at the highest level.' The Q-Collar is worn around the neck and applies light pressure to help limit brain movement during head impacts. It offers an added layer of protection that's backed by over 25 peer-reviewed scientific studies. Gardner's personal experience using the Q-Collar inspired him to want to raise awareness of the product among athletes at all levels to encourage safer play. 'Sauce has been incredibly hands-on since day one – not only in wearing the Q-Collar but truly understanding how it works and why it matters,' said Tom Hoey, CEO and Co-Founder of Q30 Innovations. 'He's passionate about sharing his experience and educating others, which makes him the ideal partner. Sauce isn't just a world-class athlete; he's a thoughtful advocate for player safety and brain health.' The partnership marks another major milestone in Q-Collar's mission to help athletes across all sports play smarter and safer – while maintaining peak performance. For more information, visit About Q30 Since 2012, Q30 Innovations has worked with leading medical and academic institutions to research and develop the Q-Collar. Over 25 pre-clinical and clinical studies show the Q-Collar safely and effectively helps protect the brain from effects of repetitive head impacts. The Q-Collar received FDA authorization in February 2021, and officially launched in the United States in September 2021. The Q-Collar is currently being worn by professionals and youth athletes in lacrosse, football, soccer, winter sports and members of the armed forces.

New Cairo's Sauce Is Egypt's First Asian-American Diner
From katsu burgers to sesame-drenched noodles with fries on the side, Sauce in New Cairo redefines the diner - with toppings labeled wet, dry, and always just a little unhinged. Jun 23, 2025 In a stunning development for people who thought 'Asian-American diner' meant fortune cookies and milkshakes, Sauce in New Cairo has arrived to ruin everything you thought you knew about sauce, toppings, and the basic laws of noodle somewhere between your dreams of a katsu burger and your fears of a sesame-oil milkshake, Sauce bills itself as an 'Asian-American diner' - which appears to translate roughly to: 'yes, there are noodles, and yes, they can come with fries.' But that's not all. The toppings - sorry, 'wet' and 'dry' options only. Want your karaage drenched in hot honey? That's a wet one. Need some crispy shallots on your sando? Dry. Still confused? So is everyone else. But we're too busy chewing to care. Also of note: the tables are coloured, the branding is bold, and there's probably a sriracha aioli hiding under something at all times. Welcome to the future. Bring napkins.
