THE Heathrow Employment and Skills Academy in Newall Road has helped more than 5,800 people into employment since it was set up 15 years ago.

To mark the occasion, it hosted its own Academy Awards ceremony at Stockley Park Golf Club, celebrating the 87 graduates for 2019.

Graduates were joined by guest speaker Reggie Nelson, who shared his inspiring story of door-knocking in wealthy parts of London for careers advice.
