Stafford College Team Triumphs at Biggest Pitch Grand Finals

Stafford College students have been crowned winners of this year’s Biggest Pitch of the Year Grand Finals, following an inspiring showcase of creative talent at the VCCP London office. The event brought together learners from across Stoke-on-Trent, Stafford and Nottingham, who travelled to the capital to present their campaign ideas to Music Venue Trust and a panel of industry professionals.

The event showcased not only creativity and innovation, but also the confidence and professionalism of the next generation of talent.

Ahead of the final pitches, students had the opportunity to enhance their skills through a series of exclusive workshops. These included a session with Adobe exploring the use of Adobe Firefly for generative visuals, a “Build Your Brand” masterclass focused on interview techniques, and an “Ask Me Anything” session where industry experts shared valuable insights into creative career pathways.

The competition culminated in a standout victory for Stafford College, whose team impressed judges with a compelling and creative campaign. The winning entry was developed by Henry Ashmore, Beth Ansell and Chris Hollingmode, all studying on the Level 3 Graphic and Creative Design course. Their dedication and hard work over the past six months were evident in their success.
