Damian has opened Ashford College’s Phase 2 extension. The new build includes a cutting-edge ‘Engineering Hub’ with CNC machines, XUZ machines and Kuka Robotics, as well as new electrical, plumbing and digital facilities. This extension was made possible thanks to support from the Government’s Post-16 Capacity fund and their SDF fund.
This £10 million investment in Ashford will ensure Ashford College can continue to deliver outstanding skills that will benefit local businesses. You can explore Phase 2 at Ashford College’s November open day: https://www.ashfordcollege.ac.uk/information/whats-on/open-days-events/2815/?fbclid=IwAR2XVJoosmuGG9rtcBR16jeib4wEN4JJZgPn_uqfk3hUgulsPJHnr_rXIuQ
Damian commented “This extension of the college is not just great for the students but a big boost for Ashford. Our employers and businesses will have a flow of highly-trained new workers to help the local economy grown and flourish.”
