On 19 July two Hilderstone College staff members, Melanie McLaren and Rianna Wright, went to London to participate in the Save UK ELT Day of Action. It took place at Old Palace Yard in London. The aims of the event were to call on our government to provide additional support to all English language schools until 2022 and to meet MPs in Westminster to help make them aware of the situation that English language schools face due to the pandemic and the ongoing restrictions on international travel. Mel and Rianna met with our constituency MP, Mr Craig Mackinlay, to put forward our views and to personally hand him a letter written by our Principal, Lee Shutler.
