RENU Training Academy

✨New faces, New spaces and a whole new year ahead! 🤩

✨ We will have appointments with our level 2 and 3 learners from September. ✨

🌿 Throwback to some of our learners' incredible work from last academic year.

Still in training. Already creating hair this beautiful. ✨

Rich copper melts, warm balayage, sun-kissed blonde — this is the standard our students were producing while they learned, and it's exactly the skill and care you can expect this year too.

Appointments open from September — be one of the first through the door. 💫

📍 Booking opens September - dont delay, as they can fill up fast!!

🦆💛 An update on our little duck we rescued! 💛🦆

We have the most wonderful news about our little duck! 🥰

Cuan Wildlife Rescue Centre has been in touch to let us know that our little one is thriving and has now been released with other ducks into their rehabilitation centre. 🦆🦆

We are absolutely over the moon to hear that he is doing so well and is now surrounded by other ducks while he continues his journey back to the wild. We can’t wait to hear more updates about him! 💛

We also wanted to take this opportunity to shine a huge spotlight on the amazing work that Cuan Wildlife Rescue Centre does. They have told us that it costs around £40,000 every month to keep their centre running and, most importantly, to ensure they are there 24/7 for animals in need and emergencies just like ours.

We have made a donation to this incredible cause because we truly believe they deserve all the support they can get. The work they do for animals who are injured, vulnerable and so unlucky is absolutely amazing. 🐾❤️

If you feel that you can donate, even just a small amount, please do. Every single penny really does count and helps them continue saving lives. 🙏🏼

Thank you, Cuan, for looking after our little duck and for everything you do. We are so grateful! 🥹💛🦆

No Rest for the Wicked at RENU! 🔨🚪✨

For most, summer has been all about slowing down, chilling out and enjoying a well-earned break… but here at RENU Education, it’s been ALL GO! 😅

There really is no rest for the wicked! While our learners and the majority of staff have been enjoying their summer break, we’ve been busy behind the scenes carrying out further works and improvements across our space.

And last week we were getting stuck into the door fitting! 🔨

There’s a lot more to hanging a door than simply putting it on its hinges. We’ve been mortising the door frames for the hinges, carefully chiselling out the recesses so everything sits flush and securely, before fitting the frames and getting them ready for the doors to be hung.

It’s all about precision, patience and practical skills — and we’re loving watching each stage of the transformation take shape.

We are SO proud of how the space is coming together, and we honestly cannot wait to share the finished results with you all. 👀✨

There’s still plenty more to do, but every door, wall, fitting and finishing touch is bringing us one step closer!

Watch this space… RENU is taking shape! 💜

Special thanks to Vince and Chris for the help with the building works. Also our amazing staff members: Liz and Kim for all your efforts this summer! - This doesn't go unnoticed.

Exciting things are happening at RENU Education! 🛠️✨

Our building works are coming along brilliantly. This photo was taken on the last day of term, and since then it's been all hands on deck! It's been hard work, but we're so pleased to say it's finally starting to look less like a building site and more like the education centre we've been dreaming of. 🏫💛

We'll be sharing the finished photos very soon, but we couldn't wait to give you a little sneak peek and share our excitement for this new venture.

This September, we can't wait to welcome our new Ignite learners into a brand-new space designed to be warm, welcoming, comfortable, and nurturing. Our aim is to create an environment where young people who haven't found their place in a traditional education setting can feel safe, supported, and inspired to thrive.

Every learner deserves the opportunity to succeed, and we're incredibly proud to be creating a space where our dedicated team can help make that happen. We can't wait to open our doors! 💙

✨ From Learning to Creating Beautiful Results ✨

Throwback to this incredible transformation created by one of our Ember learners during their Level 2 Hairdressing class last term! 🤍

From refreshing the colour and creating a seamless blend to a precision cut and a beautiful, bouncy blow-dry, this is a fantastic example of the skills, creativity and confidence our learners develop throughout their journey with us.

We're so proud of the progress our learners make, and it's amazing to see their hard work reflected in such professional results. We are so excited to see the beautiful transformations next academic year. 🌟

We're loving these incredible newspaper creations made by our Ignite learners! 📰✨

As part of a creative challenge, our learners designed and created stunning wedding dresses using nothing but newspaper. They didn't stop there either—they completed their looks with beautiful handmade hair pieces, showcasing some seriously impressive origami skills! 👰🩶

The creativity, teamwork, and attention to detail on display have been amazing, and they should all be incredibly proud of what they've achieved. We certainly are! 💛

Well done to everyone involved—you've all done a fantastic job! 🌟

There's only 2 weeks left until Kim literally takes the leap. Please sponsor her if you can ❤️

🪂💙 Taking the Leap for a Fantastic Cause! 💙🪂

One of our amazing team members, Kim, is taking on an incredible challenge by completing a charity skydive in support of Friends of Alfie Johnson! 🌟

Friends of Alfie Johnson is a wonderful local charity dedicated to raising funds for specialist equipment for children with disabilities across the Black Country, continuing the legacy of an inspirational young boy, Alfie Johnson. 💙

Kim has set herself a fundraising target of £500, and we'd love your support to help her reach it. Every donation, no matter how big or small, will make a real difference to children and families who benefit from the charity's work.

👏 We are incredibly proud of Kim for stepping outside her comfort zone and taking on such a brave challenge for such an important cause. We're all behind her every step of the way – even when she's thousands of feet up in the air! 😄

If you'd like to support Kim and help make a difference, please consider donating.

Good luck, Kim – you've got this! 🪂💙✨
👏 A huge well done to Kim for committing to such a brave challenge and for raising money for a charity that changes lives. We are all behind you every step of the way (even if you're jumping out of a plane! 😄).

If you'd like to donate and help Kim reach her goal, your support would be greatly appreciated. 💙

✨ Throwback to Last Term's Nail Creations! 💅🌸

Our Ignite learners showed off their creativity and attention to detail with these gorgeous pastel pink polka dot nails, created during last term's training.

From perfect polish application to neat, hand-painted designs, every set helped our learners build confidence and develop the professional skills needed for the beauty industry.

We're incredibly proud of the progress they made last term and look forward to seeing even more amazing work next academic year! 💖

Lovely end-of-term gifts received for our amazing Ignite Hair & Beauty tutor! 💐💝

She was truly overwhelmed by the love, kindness, and appreciation shown by all of her girls. Thank you for making the end of term so special – your thoughtful gifts and heartfelt gestures meant the world. ❤️✨
