The evening was a huge success, with games, a raffle, and plenty of laughs across the tables. A massive thank you has to go to our kitchen team—the food was delicious as always, and they worked incredibly hard to make sure everyone was well looked after.

Our Co-op Young Leaders (CYLs) led the event from start to finish and were, as ever, fantastic ambassadors for the Academy. Whether they were helping with the raffle or just making sure our guests felt welcome, they handled it all with such confidence. Community is so important to us, and seeing our students take the lead in bringing people together is exactly what we’re about.

We had a wonderful time and we’re already looking forward to the next one!
