Thank you so, so much to all the staff and students at @NESCollege for absolutely smashing the Sparkle target! The Student Pantry is so incredibly important to our student community and we're so pleased with the support to keep it going 💜

We did it! A massive thanks to all who contributed to and participated in our Sparkle winter festival. Together we raised £3,350 to smash the fundraising target for The Student Pantry, an initiative run by the NESCol Students’ Association to provide support across our campuses.
