Students and staff at Bridgwater College will once again be raising money for three worthwhile charities when they celebrate their annual Raise and Give (RAG) Day on Thursday 17 December.

This year’s charities, which were chosen by the College’s Student Union, will be, The Motor Neurone Disease Association, The Hawk and Owl Trust and The Eddystone Trust for HIV and Sexual Health.

An action-packed day has been planned at the College, with a Zombie Apocalypse, crazy golf, bubble football and a DJ showcase to name a few. Students and staff will also be dressing up for the day with prizes for the craziest and most imaginative costumes.

Music students will be putting on a fantastic music concert on Cornhill from 1.30pm. A Level Music students will perform a classical repertoire, BTEC Music students have planned a set of Christmas hits. The concert will conclude with a selection of well-known covers by the Music Academy. Everyone is welcome to come along and support the students and donate to the chosen charities we are supporting this year.

The College is working hard with the police, the Southwest Ambulance Service and Trading Standards to ensure that a fun but safe time is had by all.

Mark Nettle, Director of Student Services at Bridgwater College said,

“We’re looking forward to another great RAG Day with lots going on in College for our students. The atmosphere is always special and we’re delighted to be working with the police and other services to ensure that a safe time is had by all. Come and enjoy some festive tunes with our students in the town centre and donate to some very worthwhile charities!”
