Student mechanics have a sophisticated new piece of equipment to help with their training, thanks to a Hargrave company.
Orchard Industrial donated the £1,000 endoscope to the automotive workshop at West Suffolk College.

It allows apprentices and students to diagnose problems with car engines without dismantling them.

Lecturer Tom Toolan said: "This generous donation will give students an insight into the best available technology.

"This is an advanced piece of equipment based on fibre-optic and lens technology used in medical equipment."

The endoscope was presented to the college by Simon Williams, sales director at Orchard, which supplies marine and industrial instruments.
