On Wednesday, as part of the Aspire Programme and as a follow up from our Y10 Careers Day, 30 Y10 students were invited to attend the HSBC Head Office in Sheffield. They completed some skills sessions, a tour safari, and a cybersecurity escape room task before considering the pathways HSBC can offer for them in the future. A key piece of advice for the day came from the keynote speaker - “Always be curious and continue to explore all your options!” #enjoyingexcellence

Hard work looks good on you, Natalie!

From years of training in all weathers to being selected for @yorkshireccc U18s and the Yorkshire Academy- it’s been a journey of pure grit and passion.

The Academy selection is a testament to your growth as a player and your commitment to the sport. We can’t wait to see what you do this season!
