A spokesman for the college said the idea is to “inspire, present, motivate and encourage the community, and in particular the younger generation, to follow a career within health and social care and hospitality to ensure that we have a sustainable supply of appropriately skilled staff for the future.”

The event will also have a petting zoo, face painting and food demonstrations.
