Help me draft a letter of application to potential employers

[Red_Stafford]

Hi all im looking to change career and getting into plumbing and heating, im 33 years old so most employers dont want to know, I was thinking of emailing local plumbing companies with a letter CV asking if they have any training apprentice positions, I was hoping you guys who have employed trainees could help me draft a letter up that would get the employees attention... Thanks

There are loads of similar threads on here, mine them for the nuggets but be prepared for disappointment. The green scheme install prices are particularly shocking.
