Absolutely fabulous, well done! It was really enjoyable, informative, and a wonderful way of remembering the important role of women during the miners’strikes and all they have done since! Wonderful acting too 👍


Still a bit giddy has to be said... 😁 @ALCS_UK @RSLiterature @English_Keele

Last week's ALCS Annual Awards was an incredible evening celebrating the very best of writing, creativity and education. Check out some of the highlights! 💫
