Students from Shropshire Academy Trust celebrate cultural identity and community involvement at special event
Students from a Shropshire Academy Trust came together to celebrate cultural identity and the community around them at a special event.

The Theatre Severn in Shrewsbury was the setting for the gathering of 100 students from 10 schools across the Marches Academy Trust, united under the theme of “ONEVoice - Belonging in the World.”
The event brought together students, educators, and business leaders to explore how young people can take a proactive role in their communities, celebrating both cultural identity and community involvement.
It was a day full of creativity, workshops, and keynote speeches and carried a message of young people having the power to shape their communities and define their own identities.
Niki McGarvey, who leads the Personal Development and Student Voice initiative at Marches Academy Trust, emphasised the importance of giving students a voice.
