World Mental Health Day
World Mental Health Day – Friday 10th October
From 10:30 AM to 1:30 PM at Ore and Station Plaza campuses, we will be raising awareness about mental health across our college.
This year’s theme is “Access to Services – Mental Health in Catastrophes and Emergencies,” highlighting the critical need for people to receive mental health support during times of crisis and emergency.
Black History Month
It’s October, which means it’s Black History Month UK 2025!
The theme this year is “Standing Firm in Power and Pride,” a powerful tribute to the resilience, strength, and unwavering commitment to progress that defines the Black community across the globe.
This year’s theme is not only about remembrance but also a call to action. It invites individuals and communities to stand firm in their power with pride, and to actively shape a world where Black voices are heard, valued, and celebrated.
Black History Month 2025 will challenge us to break down barriers, continue pushing for progress, own our spaces, and walk confidently into the future.
At Station Plaza, we have organised a trip to an amazing art gallery in London to explore Black art and deepen our understanding of Black history. Details will be shared in the next student notice.
