do the job first and take it from there.

take the job what have you got to lose except a week of your time if it doesn't work out.

on a plate mate. you dont get chances like that too often. i fail to see your dilema really. grab it with both hands. best of luck.

You may not get a second chance ,go for it , if your are voluntarying ,means you are serious .Just remember one think to exceed others ,you have to be multiskilled and outclass others .
To be a good plumber you will need other skills as basic electrics .
When you qualify as a plumber learn how to diversify eg learn about different systems open vented , unvented ,s plan , y plan wiring method , a lot of plumbers frightened when confronted with complicated systems .
Also try to get on with somebody who does gas ,possibly breakdown engineer.
Try to go all the way and get your nvq3 in plumbing , start teaching as you get older when your knees have had it.
