Our Hair & Media Make-up students have entered their last competition of the year – the National AHT Make-up and Body Art competitions in Blackpool.

This week, 42 colleges from all over the UK including Ireland, Scotland and Wales entered with 362 students in total over a variety of competitions. Our students were put forward in every category and it was a fantastic achievement for our students to end their year on.
