On Friday, 7th October, our Sixth Form students were invited to help out at the Oldham Business Awards at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, an annual awards event attended by over 550 business leaders and entrepreneurs celebrating great business in Oldham.

Hosted by former Chronicle Business Editor Martyn Torr and ITV’s Caroline Whitmore, the evening was a huge success, with much needed funds being raised for two Oldham charities – Dr Kershaw’s Hospice and the Mahdlo Youth Zone.

Our students thoroughly enjoyed the event and welcomed the opportunity they were given to represent the school at such a prestigious event.

The evening was a huge success and was a chance for our students to network with local businesses including Pearsons Solicitors, Natwest Bank, Ultimate Products and many more. This helped our students explore a variety of career paths and helped them establish connections within their chosen industries.

A big thank you to Kashif Ashraf, President of Oldham Chamber of Commerce, for the invitation.
