Students raised more than £100 for the Pakistan Flood's Appeal at a pamper day.
 
Chiltern Business Training’s e2e students held the annual Community Pamper Day last Tuesday.
 
The event, held at Bury Park Community Resource Centre, Luton and in association with Luton Borough Council, attracted more than 100 people for free beauty treatments from manicures to hairstyles.
 
The students were all studying vocational courses, including Hair & Beauty, throughout the summer to gain new skills and extra qualifications.
 
The programme is funded by the Learning and Skills Council.
 
Junaid Ahmed, from the council, commented on the success of the event, and also the opportunity for young people in the community to meet.
 
He said: “The event has given youngsters in the Luton, Dunstable and Leighton Buzzard areas a chance to integrate, and remove boundaries to meet new friends from different backgrounds.
 
"This is the first event we have done with the college, but we are hoping to help organise more in the future to replicate this achievement.”
 
Mev Ahmed, e2e coordinator, said: “The students have really relished in the opportunity to give something back to the community, as well as raise money for a good cause.”
