## About this tender

City College Plymouth currently operates two training Salons from its Kings Road site. The Salons; "Creative Solutions" (Upstairs) and "Stars" (Ground floor) provide a real-life experience for students who offer treatments to clients. The Stars salon is also a commercial salon.
