Riseholme Students Win National Agricultural Engineering Apprentice Award

The 2020 Midlands Agricultural Engineering Apprentice Awards have been announced and we are delighted that two of our Riseholme College students have received the award which includes a £500 grant each. In total four winners were chosen by a panel of Newark and Nottinghamshire Agricultural Society judges, in recognition of their valuable contribution which they are making across the agricultural industry.

The award ceremony now in its fourth year, was held virtually due to the pandemic, but the students were still able to receive their award and have their moment to celebrate this exciting achievement. Liam is currently studying for an apprenticeship with the Canal and River Trust said,
