This July, St George’s held its first in person graduation ceremonies in three years. Seven ceremonies took place over four days on 12, 27, 28 and 29 July at the Barbican centre.
A new campaign for Black History Month 2021 invited Black and Brown people around the UK to share what they are Proud To Be for a festival of celebration in October.
We were Proud To Be taking part in this and invited students, staff and alumni from the university to take part by submitting a written or recorded statement sharing what they are proud to be.
Take a look at the submissions we received, which we shared across our channels and networks throughout the month.
