    The support I received at College helped prepare me for work in the Healthcare sector. I'm now a fully qualified, registered nurse.

  • Image of Rebecca Gavigan (Wall & Floor Tiling)
    I’m the only female in the class but I didn’t let this stop me from pursuing something out of my comfort zone. Tiling is a very creative trade so I curbed my hesitations by leaning on my background in Fine Art. This has helped me see things in a way others may not.
