Cormac Bignall-Young undertook NVQ Level 3 in Heritage Plastering. He said: "The most important thing I learned was the various types of lime and clay which can be used as a plaster. Thanks to this course I know every step of making my own. From finding and testing suitable clays to different finish applications. Thanks to this knowledge I have more adaptability when plastering in an authentically historical manner as I now have the knowledge to adapt my mixes by availability of resources and the backgrounds being plastered". 

Nicky Potts attended our second Boot Camp in February this year and hasn't looked back. He started on a trial basis with respected local ground working company Kirkaldy and Roe and has been with them for 3 months now. He is really enjoying working in the construction industry. Nicky said recently: "I’m still at Kirkcaldy and row I’m enjoying it, just starting to get some tickets, I’ve just done my cat and genny and looking at my dumper as well so it’s all looking good".
