Congratulations to Ben Eaton and Ross Varnam, competitors in the
2011 London WorldSkills competition.
 
Both lads did terrifically well; Ben lifted the Bronze medal in car painting while Ross achieved Silver in auto body repair. They have both worked very hard over the last 12 months so their success is well deserved.

 

They were backed by an awful lot of industry people including their employers (Sytner Sheffield and Parkers Leicester) and their families of course.
If you've got the skills to follow Ben and Ross, there's still time to enter the next round of SkillAuto competitions online. Those who wish to put themselves to the test can do so by visiting www.autocity.org.uk/skillauto
