Engineering and Catering / Hospitality students from the Tycoch campus were invited by the Royal Navy to tour HMS Richmond, a ‘type 23’ frigate docked at Cardiff Bay.
“We were warmly received by the Captain and his crew and given an extensive tour of the ship,” says lecturer Mark Row. “This visit will be followed by the Royal Navy’s attending Tycoch to discuss apprenticeship pathways with groups of Engineering and Catering students.”
"We spent the morning touring the ship and speaking to the crew," adds Coral Planas, Curriculum Leader for Engineering. "We also had opportunities to discuss life onboard and what the crew enjoy most about being in the Navy."
