The idea that anyone could criticise a young man who is essentially the same age as our y13s is appalling. A straight ‘A’ student, super talented and brave enough to step up. His team have shown the best of the country in the last month. We need to follow their example.

We had the pleasure of welcoming entrepreneur, author, philanthropist and designer Jamal Edwards MBE to Elmgreen in 2019. He was fantastically giving of his time and was a real inspiration to our young people. A real tragedy and our condolences to his family.
