The College Foundation

The College Foundation was set up in 1994 and was the first registered charity established in the U.K. to enhance the education of students attending a further education college. Since then we have raised over £1,000,000 for the benefit of our students.

Conferences, Seminars and Exhibitions

The College Foundation will be organising a number of Conferences, Seminars and Exhibitions over the next year.
