Students at ABDO College will be able to relax in comfort and enjoy a refreshed common room thanks to Millmead Optical Group.
Sophie Lifton, senior marketing manager at Millmead Optical Group, visited the college this week to give the Student Common Room a refresh. Sophie added new soft furnishings as well as flowers and decorative items to brighten up the room.
Sophie says: "Our partnership with ABDO College, which dates back to 2017, has provided me with the opportunity to create spaces where students can truly unwind and relax.
"This year, I drew inspiration from vivid and dynamic hues, resulting in delightful elements such as uplifting multi-coloured cushions, a stunning velvet parrot desk lamp, and an assortment of vases adorned with tropical blossoms. I really hope the students and the college staff love what we’ve done with the room!"
Dr Robert Cubbidge, principal of ABDO College, says: "It was great to welcome Sophie Lifton from our sponsor Millmead Optical Group at ABDO College today. Sophie has refreshed the common room, making it a more vibrant and inviting space for our students to enjoy. Thanks to James Conway for making it possible."
