See you at Leigh Expo 2016!
Excitement is building in the office this week ahead of Leigh Expo on Friday (24th June)!
The Expo, which takes place annually at Leigh Sports Village stadium, is a great opportunity for local businesses to introduce their brands to a wide audience and we’re proud to have worked with some of this year’s exhibitors to create displays which really stand out.
Welcome to our world!
Each year, we support Westleigh High School’s World of Work day, running workshops with Year 9 students about the creative media industry and our roles at CRE8.

A personal statement is essentially a marketing pitch for yourself so it needs to convey a positive image, be well-composed and persuasive. Preparing something similar? Here’s my recommended structure and some pointers on content to get you started:
