Competition winner - winner of What’s Your Hidden Talent?
In September 2009 we awarded one learner with £100 learning voucher through our competition ‘What’s your hidden talent?’. The winner was Coleen from Corsham. She would like to mentor and support young adults on training courses. She says ‘Years ago when I was training my mentor was fantastic, she encouraged me to take advantage of every opportunity in work. I’d like to do the same for other people.’
