Open event to encourage future hair and beauty trainees

People looking for a future career in the hair and beauty industry are invited to attend an open event in Oswestry to learn about training opportunities.

The event will take place at the Renu Hair & Beauty Training Academy at Unit 8-10 Glovers Meadow Business Park on Monday, February 13, between 2pm and 5pm.

School leavers, those returning to the industry or people interested in a complete career change are encouraged to attend the event and learn about the training courses on offer, including vocational teaching and assessing qualifications.

Gail Smallman, vocational training manager for Landau which operates the Renu Training Academy, said: “We’re really looking forward to welcoming people from the local community and beyond to the academy.

“It will be a chance for individuals to learn about the courses and training we offer whether they are completely new to the industry, looking to return to the profession and need to update their skills or fancy a complete career change.

“There will be an opportunity to speak to course trainers and have a look around the facilities.”

Gail added: “We are thrilled that Oswestry Mayor Councillor Jay Moore will also be joining us on the day and look forward very much to giving him a tour of the facilities along with everyone else.”

Landau operates three further Renu Training Academy sites, one in Wellington, Shrewsbury and Hereford and there will also be an opportunity to attend open events at these sites throughout February and March.

• Renu Wellington, 23 Church Street, on February 28, 1.30pm to 3pm • Renu Hereford, 31 Union Walk, on March 2, 1.30pm to 3pm • Renu Shrewsbury, Unit 10 Dorrington Business Park, on 8 March, 1.30pm to 3pm

Landau offers a range of vocational courses including Levels 1, 2 and 3 qualifications in Hairdressing or Beauty Therapy and all courses are accredited either by VTCT or NOCN.

Lizzie Connor, mother-of-five, is balancing family life and is training with Renu to gain a Level 2 qualification in Beauty Therapy. She hopes to return to the beauty industry and one day open her own salon.

She said: “I don’t think I would have got this far this fast if I had gone somewhere else. Renu has programmes to cater for all different needs.”
