Newark College students raise awarenesses of LGBTQ and mental health issues as part of National Citizenship Service award

Students at a college have been raising awareness of issues that are important to themselves and their peers as part of their National Citizenship Service (NCS).

The Newark College students chose to raise awareness of LGBTQ and mental health issues during the ten-day initiative.

Hannah Watts said: “Some people struggle with their mental health and their sexuality, so we wanted to make people aware of these issues.”

As part of their campaign, the students created a display in the main entrance and made posters to put up around the college.
