Team Barrow is investing £1.7m into a UTC sleeve at Walney school. I’m proud to be involved with this project to create an employer led pathway for young people to pursue a technical career. Its ground breaking & exciting for the future for kids in Barrow

I’ve jumped out of moving cars, hidden on railway embankments, ran across dual carriageways and once opened the car door to escape on the motorway all trying to escape the abuse. The likelihood of death was often the better alternative. Sending love to her family 💕💕💕
