Sherwood wins Parliament Week award

mark spencer

I'm very pleased to say that Sherwood has won an award recently for the amount of 'Parliamentary themed' activities that took place during Parliament Week last year.

Parliament Week aims to get people more engaged with Parliament and the British political process, particularly younger people, and is a great opportunity for schools to hold themed activities or assemblies to encourage participation in our democracy.

Of the 650 constituencies across the country, we came a joint 32nd place - pleased with that result!

I hope everyone's having a great Sunday.
