The trio all graduated from The University of Plymouth on Friday, with Calum, of Church Street, Blagdon, being awarded a BA in graphic communication with typography, Nicola, of Butt’s Batch, Wrington a BA in photography and Freddy, of Station Road, Blagdon a BA in media arts programme.

Calum is now a graphic designer in Plymouth, Nicola is looking to teach photography and Freddy has started a masters degree at Southampton University.
