Nick attends 'Women in Automotive Paint Spraying Industry' at Southgate College

Nick visited Southgate College where a special awareness day was being hosted for women in automotive paint spraying industry.

Southgate College teemed up with the IMI (Institute of the Motor Industry) and Morelli Group, based in Enfield North, to offer courses in body work spray painting. The awareness day however was designed to promote the trade to women in particular who are very under represented in the automotive industry. Whilst 40 percent of women buy automotive products, only 20 percent of the national workforce in this sector are female. In automotive paint spraying only 3 percent of the workforce are female.

Nick tried his hand at spray painting as you can see from the photograph! Nick thought he did an OK job, but the college have refused to comment...
