VINTAGE GOODWOOD: Worthing students style festival event
THEATRE hair and make-up students from a Worthing college will be putting their styling skills to the test at a historical culture event.
The students from Northbrook College will be at the first-ever Vintage at Goodwood festival, which will be celebrating all that is best about Britain from the 1940s right up until the 1980s.
For the three-day event, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, August 13-15, the students will be working in the hair and beauty parlour located on the Vintage High Street – a representation of the Great British High Street.
