When Jeff Dermain from Lancashire walked into the RF Training Centre on the first day of his 7 week plumbing training course, little did he know that he was the 500th trainee to pass through the doors of the RF Training Centre since it opened to the public in November 2006.

Jeff was presented with a certificate as well as a DeWALT Power Drill Set which will assist Jeff in starting his new career in plumbing.
