\"IMG_178644106635898\"<\/a>The Reaseheath Alumni Association<\/a> are keen to keep in touch with former students and support them on their career journeys. It\u2019s inspiring to hear about the wide ranging career paths our students have gone on to undertake.<\/p>\n

Reaseheath alumnus Lois Dalton and now proud owner of Vanity Furr Dog Grooming<\/a> contacted us to let us know how she has been getting on since leaving Reaseheath.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what she had to say…<\/p>\n

\u201cI started attending Reaseheath College in 2010 when I was sixteen. I already had a work placement at a local kennels and grooming salon but wanted to further my training and gain a qualification, so where better to go than Reaseheath!<\/p>\n

“I was part of a day release course, this meant I trained on campus on certain days and spent the rest of the week out in industry. This structure of training \u00a0ensured I gained all the hands on work experience whilst also working towards a qualification at the same time. \u00a0At the end of the course I gained a Level 2 Diploma in Animal Care<\/a> and a basic first aid qualification. \u00a0Both of which are vital when doing a job like mine.<\/p>\n

“Now I’m twenty, I’ve gained lots more experience with the help of training scholarship from Aesculap and as a result of entering and winning a number of dog grooming competition awards. With this all under my belt, in 2013 I achieved my dream and opened up my own dog grooming business<\/a> and couldn’t be happier.\u00a0Working with animals is a perfect career for me and I feel so lucky to be involved in such a fantastic industry. I would like to thank all the tutors and staff at Reaseheath College for being a part of my journey and for all their help and support.<\/p>\n

“I hope my story (which has been shortened dramatically for this little article!) Can show other Reaseheath College students that by working hard, getting experience and working alongside truly supportive tutors at, in my opinion one of the best colleges, you can achieve your goals!”<\/p>\n
