Despite today's un-summery weather, we held our Summer Party event for staff and students! They enjoyed a BBQ, live music and more. A huge thank you to the staff who worked really hard behind the scenes to organise the fun. Everyone had an amazing time! #staffappreciation

National Star student Dan thanked Eli, a drama student, for recording 1,600 phrases to give him his own voice. Dan has promised to use it for good and make his voice heard.

‘When I think back to how things were and how we were told Shannon would not improve after the accident, and then I look at her now, it’s truly amazing.’

Last week we celebrated Learning Disability Week at college with the theme 'Do you see me?', promoting the importance of every student being seen, heard, and valued. Students created identity art & promoted the theme in the community. We wrapped up the week with sunny disco!

‘As Shannon’s accident has shown me, disaster really can strike anyone of us, at any time. And that’s why I am so grateful to people like you who kindly support National Star’s work with people with disabilities’.
