Clare Callery
Clare is our technological whizz, and when she is not busy learning about the latest technology, she is rubbing shoulders with the stars (She met Alistair Campbell last week!). Clare was once described as ‘the student with the most work experience I have ever seen’ and we are very lucky to have her working with us in the Ptarmigan academy. We don’t know how she finds the time, but Clare also works at Wolfstar PR.
Clare is always posting exciting bits and bobs on Twitter, catch her at www.twitter.com/claresiobhancallery

Lois Ackerley
Lois has been busy securing work placements with different organisations, and has been lucky enough to work in both the Middlesbrough council PR team, and the Cleveland police PR team which has provided her with a strong knowledge of local government workings and good liaising skills. Lois has also been working with countless musicians this year, not only buffing up on her musical talent – but doing PR as well. Clever girl!
