National Apprenticeship Week was an exciting and inspiring time at Bury College, filled with activities that helped mark the occasion and celebrate the exceptional talent, dedication and achievements of Apprentices.
Bury College Construction students were recently tasked with designing and building a Crazy Golf course to raise money for Bury Hospice.
Staff and students were then invited along to try out the creation. Everyone that took part seemed to enjoy the course, even if some of the putting skills weren't very good.
Perry Cuppello, Assistant Director for Construction at Bury College, said: “Many thanks for all the voluntary donations from students and staff who participated in the construction Christmas fair at Bury College. The event raised £115, and was acknowledged and thanked by Bury Hospice. We are proud to support local charities and will continue to engage with our local community.”

Over the next few weeks and months, Bury College Business and Art students will be utilising their own expertise to raise further fund and awareness for a cause that remains important to people across Bury and beyond.
