Students and staff rise to the challenge for Whitechapel Centre

Students and staff at St Margaret’s Academy in Aigburth have risen to the challenge of collecting for the annual charity appeal, for the local Whitechapel Centre.

With all form classes and staff teams on board an impressive quantity of 77 bags have now been donated.

Goods have included warm clothing, bedding and even supplies for animals of the homeless, all for the good cause of supporting vulnerable people in the local area.

Staff who organised the appeal were overwhelmed by the generosity and kindness and feel the initiative is now an important annual fixture on the school calendar, as well as vital for raising awareness amongst the school population of the needs of people within the locality who may not have as much as they have.
