Sandra and Lucy Heaney from Woodbridge Interiors Ltd - Established 1992.

BLANCO's commitment to innovation can be seen in every area of the company's ethos and this includes education. The premium kitchen sink and tap brand has been helping to foster a new generation of inspirational kitchen designers through sponsorship for the three-year FDA Kitchen Design course at Buckinghamshire New University. This is in partnership with TKET (The Kitchen Education Trust).

Lucy Heaney is the third in a successful line of students to be supported by BLANCO in this way. The financial contribution from BLANCO is giving Lucy, whose family runWoodbridge Interiors, a kitchen retailer in Melton, Suffolk, the opportunity to start her exciting career via the foundation degree course. Lucy commented, "I would like to thank BLANCO UK for this wonderful opportunity, offering me the part-sponsorship for the FDA Kitchen Design course. I am very much looking forward to starting my course learning all about kitchen design. I will of course keep BLANCO updated throughout my time at Bucks New Uni and how I am progressing on with the course."

The scholarship, which starts on 21st September 2020, enables those, like Lucy, with pre-existing passion for design and an interest in the kitchen industry to obtain the skills and qualifications that will lead to success in the industry.
