We take great pride in all of our colleges being safe, inclusive, and welcoming communities and we strongly condemn the acts of violence occurring across the country. We stand in solidarity with all those in our community affected by these troubling events.

In response to the recent unrest, representatives from NCG and our North East colleges joined community leaders from across Newcastle yesterday.

Hosted by @Newcastle City Council, this meeting provided an opportunity to connect, support, and uplift our diverse communities.

These are actions being taken across all of our colleges including Lewisham College, who have signed a joint statement with its community neighbours to condemn the violence.
