A peaceful protest was held in support of the campaign to mark end of term and appalling potential permanent closure of this historic, unique place. @hbaldwin attended and spoke to the 120+ crowd, assuring of cross party support. #malvernhills #worcestershirehour @Public_Campaign

Today at #PMQs I asked the Prime Minister to back a negotiated sale of #MalvernHillsCollege and to stop ⁦@WCollegeGroup⁩ from taking ⁦@MalvernHills_DC⁩ to court.

#CorporateGreed #AssetStripping. Buy a college to access FE money, ignoring the student demography, fail to invest in the community (time, marketing), watch it flounder. Close it, ready the lawyers. They've done it before #henleyinarden
Disappointing & not surprising from a company who clearly doesn't give a toss about education, just about asset stripping from Worcestershire communities to bail out their poorly run business and huge CEO / CFO salaries. Financial investigation needed into WCG

Thanks @feweek for highlighting this. WCG had the college (for free) for just over 4 yrs before closure notice. Waiting lists for self-funded (as no Gov cash available) courses were in operation and enrolements (1300+per year) growing. feweek.co.uk/dispute-over-cl… #EducationForAll

Beautiful image from the Rally which had 500 people at the peak & resulted in the District Council commit to respecting the Covenant. This college is a lifeline for the community & has huge future potential #savemalvernhillscollege #malvernnhills

To mark a year since WCG announced the closure, join us at our Rally to show support and see your fellow supporters. We need Malvern Hills District Council to uphold the educational covenant so that the site is not sold to developers! #MalvernHillsHour @malvernhillshr

With #COP26Glasgow on the agenda this week, you'd think it was important to be able to study in your local region at FE level rather than add to the carbon footprint! Please help save our college- 5 signatures needed to pass 5k! change.org/p/warwickshire-co…
