Student achievements have been recognised at the Buxton & Leek College's Annual Awards Ceremony. 

Over 130 people attended the event, with the winners and their guests treated to a two-course dinner at Buxton’s iconic Devonshire Dome.  

Throughout the evening, students took to the stage to receive accolades for their special achievement, along with prizes from the evening’s sponsors.  

College Principal Len Tildsley said the evening provided an opportunity to reflect on the successes and the challenges of the past year and to anticipate the new experiences yet to come. 

The Outstanding Achievement award was won by Thomas Gillott and an Unsung Hero Award was collected by Rebecca Powell both from Whaley Bridge. 

Among the award winners were Joe Green, Crystal Green, Declan Bentley, Elley Wray, Samantha Ward and Freya Clemson all from Buxton, and Sophie Watkins from Whaley Bridge. 

This year’s sponsors included Wella and Natwest.
