SERVICE USER ACHIEVEMENTS: Sophie takes next step towards her desired career of becoming a beautician

Sophie takes next step towards her desired career of becoming a beautician

Nua Healthcare staff and fellow Service Users of Sophie's, would like to recognise her recent huge achievement of taking the next big step towards her desired career as a beautician. 

Sophie has been actively working in her community through the support of the outreach team for some time now and has been attending the Acorn midlands Education and training centre, where she has completed a course in “make up and more”. This six week course was delivered by well-known makeup artist Lisa Doyle, the course was delivered through both practice and theory and Sophie excelled in every way.

As well as all the hard work, Sophie enjoyed the 2 hours of girlie beauty chats while meeting new people and learning some new beauty skills.

We asked Sophie about her experience on the course and she said; “I really enjoyed being out in the community learning new things about makeup. I learned how to do eyeshadow and contouring properly. I liked going to the classes because it was something just for me and I felt independent and confident, I really enjoyed meeting new people.”

Well done Sophie. Keep up the great work!
