THE training provider Pitman is aiming to help people retrain and develop new skills in the wake of the pandemic. Pitman Training Bournemouth and Poole opened earlier this year and is delivering training and exams online and in person. Calum Hales, centre manager and one of the owners of the local business, said: “We decided to open Pitman Training in light of the current coronavirus pandemic and the announcement of furlough and major job losses and business closures in the area. “We saw that the pandemic has had a significant impact on jobs and the way we work and study, so our online training platform is perfect for people looking to retrain and get re-skilled.

Artists Gina Medcalf, Mary Webb, Coco Crampton, Fabian Peake, Charles Hewlings, and Johann Don-Daniel are confirmed for the project along with Bill Jackson, the last artist to exhibit at The Cut before this latest lockdown.
Kasia Posen, local artist and lead on the project said: “It will be exciting to begin collating an accessible record of the exhibitions that have taken place at The Cut over the years, and also have the chance to explore past and present exhibitors current studio practice through our online interviews and studio tours.”
The Bounce Back Fund also provides training for The Cut staff and volunteers and it’s hoped that the camera equipment will allow live events to be streamed to people that feel uncomfortable attending indoor events or those that can’t make a particular evening.
