Risje Davies
Studied – Level 3 Beauty Therapy
Currently – Business Manager for Hourglass Cosmetics
“I love all things beauty, and I loved carrying out all the treatments you train to do on the course, making people feel pampered and giving that professional customer service to build a loyal customer base.
“When you’re in college you get to learn all about the skin, a good understanding on how to recognise different skin types, skin conditions, how to give that professional customer service. I utilised all the knowledge I learned at Cambria to apply for jobs which has helped me further into my career.
“You can venture out in all different roles and the good thing is about beauty you can use it everywhere and it’s always needed.”
Frankie McCamley

Studied – A Level English, Drama, Maths and French
Currently – Presenter and News Correspondent for the BBC
“I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do in the future, so I chose a range of different subjects to study at A Level. I’m now employed by the BBC as a Presenter and News Correspondent and studying at Yale Sixth gave me the confidence and skills to go onto university. I made some amazing friends, had some great teachers who I’ll never forget and had a great time in Wrexham!
“I look back on my time at Yale with pride and fondness and will never forget it!”
