Young Guns Winners

Another Year of Success for "Young Guns"

Two Services Management students are celebrating success after being named the UK’s ‘Young Guns’ by The Catering Forum.

Nick Connolly and Josie Simcox (final year BA (Hons) in Hospitality Business Development students) are the two winners in the national competition which recognises catering and hospitality students who have excelled during their professional placement.

4 Services Management students in total reached the final 10 shortlist:

Nicolas Conolly – WINNER

Rachel Hargreaves

Josie Simcox – WINNER

Scott Wakefield

Over 250 entrants were nominated by their Universities or placement employers but only 10 are short listed for the final round each year. The pair’s nomination as a ‘Young Gun’ will be formally recognized on board the luxury cruise ship Aurora in June.
