Tonight sees the public launch of our Barnsley Businesses Inspiring Students scheme.

Nick Bowen, Principal of Horizon Community College, and William Bottomley of Lifetime will formally launch the BBIS at an event hosted by the Barnsley-based college.

During the evening the committed speakers have the chance to meet each other and look around the fantastic facilities of the newly built school. They will also hear how the BBIS scheme will inspire the next generation – and get the chance to meet some of the students that will benefit from this exciting venture.

Some of the speakers who are attending tonight include Darren Padgett (founder, Team Activ), Andrew Painten (TV Producer & Director) and Ashleigh Porter-Exley (Young Apprentice Winner 2012, pictured below).

William Bottomley stated: “I am really looking forward to meeting the speakers who are committed to helping nurture our future talent with their individual and inspirational stories.”

“At Lifetime we pride ourselves in helping our clients to ‘live the life they want to live’.

“We hope we can take this objective one step further through our BBIS scheme helping students to achieve their dreams and aspirations.”
