"CHANGING Rooms" courses have been a big hit at Wigan and Leigh College.

Now new people with designs on creating a dream home have the chance to learn all the creative skills needed.

The college has organised courses available at all levels, from basic do-it-yourself, to professional level, aimed at those who wish to pursue an interior designing career,

A wide variety of options include parent-friendly, full-time classes which allow students to attend between dropping off and collecting children, and part-time day or evening classes.

Subjects covered include colour co-ordination, revamping furniture, soft furnishings and curtain making.

Course tutor Carol Duckworth organised an exhibition this week to show the quality of work done by students.
