“The skills and technical abilities being learned here at Tresham College are so important to Corby for future employment. We need to have a constant pipeline of trained talent coming through to support the industry.” Said Tom Pursglove

David Wilkins, Director of Construction at The Bedford College Group, of which Tresham is a part, said:

“This was great event put on by Will and colleagues and we thank all those suppliers and businesses who support Tresham College all year round. We’re working together to build a bright future for young people.”
