Thank You to Diversity
A group of enterprising students from Stoke Sixth Form College are collecting signatures of support and to say “Thank You to Diversity”.
The students are taking part in the national “Rise To” Enterprise Challenge, and chose diversity because “Stoke-on-Trent and the Sixth Form College are very multi-cultural and we thought our campaign would relate to a lot of people; it’s at the forefront of our college and our community.”
