Hi everyone, This is Darren Minton, your Safeguarding Business Manager. As we move into the heart of autumn, the month of October brings with it a mix of nostalgia and reflection. The clocks turn back, gifting us an extra hour in bed, a luxury many of us eagerly anticipate. After being unseasonably warm, the weather has taken a chillier turn, prompting my thoughts of adding that extra layer. On colder days like these, my thoughts often drift to those living street-based lives, grappling with complex issues and now having to contend with frosty nights and dwindling daylight.
Hi everyone. This is Darren Minton, your Safeguarding Business Manager. As the summer sun fades and the football season kicks off (fantastic for some, though not everyone's cup of tea), we see our young learners start a new school year filled with excitement and anticipation.
