Harlow College

Studying Health and Social Care at Harlow College opened my eyes to the wider aspects of health and social care and gave me an insight into what I wanted to do after college. It also gave me extra qualifications to develop my portfolio as a health and social care professional and helped me understand what university expects of me as a student.

We’ve had a few different record deals, it gets a bit complicated. We haven’t found one that really suits us. We first started off as a 50’s rock and roll band, and me and my friend Luke, who is the lead singer, we started playing in my bedroom after college because we both had a mutual love for music. We got a band rolling and we’ve kind of done well with it because of our age. That was a big thing because in that scene it’s more middle-aged to older people because of the nature of the music, it’s an old genre. We kind of mixed that music with a little bit of punk as well which again wasn’t really being done as much, so I think that's kind of the reason why we were successful getting into the scene.

Try to be truthful but sell yourself, because that’s what uni’s are kind of looking for – people who are hard working and up for a challenge. Concentrate on your good points and talk about them.
