Adult appreticeships???

hey folks,
i am thinking of a career change and would consider doing an apprenticeship. problem is i'm 31 and there doesn't seem to be many options at that age. i saw some trials based in England but i'm up North in Scotland and haven't came across any.
anyone done this, tried to ???
any pointers greatly appreciated.

    What sort of work do you want to do? Apprenticeships cover such a wide range of things. I worked in a small company where we had a young woman doing a modern apprenticeship in administration.

    ideally something working with my hands; joiner, carpenter, stone mason, plumber along those sort of lines.
