A winning team

The Bedford College Group has a winning track record with running Prince’s Trust Teams courses, so much so it was featured on a recent TV report. Newcomer Alix knows she is joining a supportive team.

“We are starting again following the lockdowns and this means re-establishing links with local businesses who may be kind enough through sponsorship or to support us by offering a week of work experience to some of our team,” said Alix,

“We know that businesses have undergone major changes, but we hope that will create some opportunities for those looking to show young people the ropes when it comes to employment.”
