To our Guildhall Community: students, staff, alumni and friends, 

With our building closed and our community spread across the world, these last few days have been overwhelming to process in isolation.

The School stands with all Black communities and everyone fighting against racism and discrimination in the UK, US and around the world. We urge the extended members of our community to do the same. We recognise that there is still a long way to go to ensure all voices are heard and represented in our own sector, let alone the wider world.
    Text on white background:
This is a distressing time for many in our community; we are here for you and we encourage you to seek support if you need it. For students via our Student Affairs team, and via the Employee Assistance Programme for our staff.

Black Lives Matter. 

Lynne Williams
Principal
