Dame Hannah Rogers Trust Testimonials

"Our young people have just one opportunity to receive a good education and we think they deserve the best that we can provide."
Angela Murray, Director of Education and Care

It`s the morning of Dame Hannah Rogers Trust school assembly. The hall is full of excitable young people in their wheelchairs. The Principal`s topic this morning is Samson and Delilah. "Anyone heard of Samson?" she asks. Bright and breezy, Billy responds "I know Samson, he`s Bart Samson and he`s on the telly!"
