Hucknall grooming academy to hold career open day

The Grooming Academy located inside Pets & Friends in Hucknall, Nottinghamshire, is to hold an open day to attract future groomers.

On 30 November, from 10am til 4pm, anyone interested in dog grooming can drop by for a chat, to watch grooming demonstrations, and look around the salon that has trained hundreds of professional groomers.

Kerry Chapman, lead trainer said: “There’s a shortage of groomers out there and we’re delighted to be working with the IPET network to help train and develop future groomers which play a key part in pet health and wellbeing.

“A career in grooming can be so rewarding from offering flexible hours to allowing people to work from a home salon environment and of course the chance to work with animals on a daily basis, but we hope the open day will inspire more people to take up grooming.”
