IDENTICAL twins Lynsey and Jaclyn Fisher are double tops! The 20-year-olds from Blackburn have both achieved their level four NVQ and HNC qualifications at the same time as their Duke of Edinburgh Gold Awards.
The sisters, former pupils at Pleckgate High School, are both on Modern Apprenticeships at Philips Components in Blackburn.
As well as working, both are taking degree level qualifications - Lynsey is studying for a post graduate diploma in human resource management and Jaclyn a degree in business at Blackburn College.
The pair were among the first in East Lancashire to take part in the XTEND Modern Apprenticeship initiative which offers young people jobs with training.
