Speaking after the announcement Bingham said “I am thrilled to represent Team UK at the EuroSkills competitions in Poland in September. This will be a life changing experience which will enable me to develop my skills and increase my knowledge. I would like to thank SRC for giving me the support to be successful in my chosen field”. 

Isaac will travel to Gdańsk in Poland where he will compete with 600 other skilled young professionals, under the age of 25, from 32 member countries including Germany, Switzerland, and France. Over 100,000 spectators from across Europe are expected to attend. 

To secure a place in Team UK, Isaac had to go through an exhaustive selection process, taking part in the prestigious WorldSkills UK National Competitions where he was awarded a gold medal in the Cabinet Making category. Isaac studied Level 3 Furniture and Cabinet Making at the Greenbank campus of Southern Regional College. 

Brian Doran, Principal & CEO of Southern Regional College said “Southern Regional College are incredibly proud of Isaac for his success to date through the WorldSkills Competition series and on his selection to Team UK at Euroskills. Isaac has consistently demonstrated that he has the skills and commitment to compete against the very best at a global stage. His success is also a clear reflection of the tremendous support provided by his lecturers at Southern Regional College. 

"I wish Isaac and Team UK every success and look forward to seeing Isaac claim another medal of excellence while representing Southern Regional College.”
