On Tuesday a group of Year 8 students attended the Merseyside Police and LFC Foundation Event for violence against women and girls awareness.

During the busy event students learned some self defence techniques from Blossom, spoke to officers from Merseyside Police about their work and had tremendous fun getting acquainted with the beautiful Merseyside Police therapy dogs.

The students also got to question a panel that included inspiring people including Julie Dale, mother of Ashley Dale, and Liverpool boxer Natasha Jonas.
