Students have the opportunity to demonstrate their talents in hospitality, retail, performing arts and horticulture as part of Derwen College’s 2026 competitions event to be held in June, in partnership with Elidyr Communities Trust.

The competitions are open to students aged 16–25, and who are working at up to Level 1 in further or specialist colleges.

Take part and showcase your skills

Taking part in the competitions is a great way for students to demonstrate their skills and readiness for work and independence.

We are privileged to have the facilities and industry connections at Derwen College to run competitions enabling students to showcase their skills.

These events bring together students from a variety of schools and colleges to compete in a professional way and demonstrate learning and employability skills.
