Happy Birthday, Stoke-on-Trent!

The parade is “the people’s love letter to the city” (quote from Susan Clarke). It had ca 1000 performers!

Uni of Staffordshire GradEx Creative Industries Degree Show is one of the hallmark cultural events in the calendar but this year was extra special with the addition of the #SoT100 Centenary Awards. The graduating students demonstrated why our World Craft City deserves to be a UNESCO Creative City.
