A fantastic opportunity for Year 9 students! @StopsleyHighSch @arctheatre #Arts #Luton

[Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan @MayorofLondon]

I’m determined to tackle hate crime in our city.

Today I announced additional funding and met inspiring grassroot groups working to stop the spread of hateful narratives, reject extremist ideologies and do more to safeguard vulnerable young Londoners from misinformation online.

[Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan @MayorofLondon]

At this difficult time, it’s never been more important for Londoners to come together and build bridges.

Watch to see how City Hall is supporting our communities in standing up to hatred and division.

In September 2023, after years of campaigning, the Bill to tackle public sexual harassment was passed! ����👏

This is how girls and youth activists across the country made it happen with the #CrimeNotCompliment campaign 👇

@WhitefieldLuton thanks for a great day yesterday! We loved working with your Y5 and Y6 students! They were such a credit to the school 🤩

[Natalie Smith @NatAtArc]

Really disappointed and disgusted with @premierinn in #Luton. Your ‘Good Nights Sleep’ Guarantee did not work for the @arctheatre team because of bed bugs!! (And a fire alarm) you’re not answering your phones either!! Please call us on 07483 342158 😡😡

[Natalie Smith @NatAtArc]

Today’s play was BOY X by @coliver1956 at @EastburySchool for the whole Y8 cohort.

They were a fantastic audience and asked such good questions about County Lines, drugs, weapon carrying, and joint enterprise.

Actors: Samuel Henderson and Malachi Giscombe
