Bobbi Watkins
September 2021
University
Former Level 3 Art & Design student Bobbi Watkins used her time at Warrington & Vale Royal College as a springboard to success, having come to the college to pursue her dream career as a graphic designer. Now, Bobbi is studying at Manchester Metropolitan University and is well on the way to achieving this goal and has even started her own successful branding design company.
Looking back fondly at her time with the college, Bobbi said: "I loved my course and I am so grateful for the opportunities offered to me at the college. My course gave me a clear pathway to university, and the skills I've learned have helped me massively in my degree and business so far."
Lauren King
September 2021
University
After completing her health & social care course at the college, Lauren progressed on to Edge Hill University to study psychology and is now completing a master's degree in counselling and psychotherapy.
Lauren says: "Words cannot express the eternal gratitude I have for all the staff and tutors who have supported me, taught me and in so many ways shaped me into who I am today. I know for a fact that I would not have achieved half as much as I have if it were not for the college and the amazing staff."
