MOUNT MUSWELL 🏔️
On Thursday a group of 2nd Year Public Service students raised in excess of £500 to help our neighbours of Muswell Court make improvements to their communal garden.🪴
Each student climbed the tower block’s 16 flights of stairs 18 times each… which equates to the height of Mount Everest!!!
A massive well done to you all, what an achievement! 🌟

REDHEAD RESIDENCE 📱
Yesterday the college was delighted to welcome social media stars and Hull locals Carrie and Joel aka @redhead.residence ⭐️
The inspirational duo spoke about their honest experiences and struggles overcoming adversity as individuals, and as a family.
In their true unfiltered-style, the pair answered student-prepared questions which ranged from issues with inequality they’ve faced in the wider community, their recent wedding, personal struggles and the positive impact social media has had on their lives.
Thank you Carrie and Joel for sharing your story so candidly and for being a beacon of positivity to many, you truly are inspirational!
