What a fantastic day at our very first Howdens Trade Day at South Lanarkshire College! πŸ”§πŸ‘

It was great to welcome leading industry partners including Howdens, UNION locks, Very Good Joinery , Sika , DART Tool Group, Karndean Flooring and HWS Team (Solid surface) who shared their expertise, products and advice with our students and staff.

From kitchen fitting demos and practical skills sessions to the Fastest 5 Screw Challenge, guess the cost of the kitchen competition and the flat pack build final, the energy and engagement throughout the event was incredible.

Events like this provide valuable opportunities for our students to explore careers in the trades, build industry connections and gain hands-on experience with the latest tools, materials and techniques.

A huge thank you to everyone who attended, got involved in the competitions, watched the live demonstrations, and connected with industry professionals throughout the day, we’re already looking forward to the next one! πŸ™Œ
