Recently, female students and teaching staff of Oxford International College (OIC) Brighton completed an 8km seafront race in support of the domestic abuse charity, RISE UK.

Tess St Clair-Ford, Principal, OIC Brighton, said: “It was so inspiring to come together and showcase the charitable, community spirit of OIC Brighton by taking part in the Undercliff 8K. We had so much fun and are overjoyed to have been able to support such an amazing cause.

"We are particularly proud of our Mathematics teacher, Mrs Latchman, who came in fourth place!”

Based in Brighton, RISE UK offers support, advice and refuge for domestic abuse victims. Representatives of the charity recently visited the college to deliver a talk on the topic of safety in relationships.
