Sophie Garfoot, BMC student and Special Olympics gold medallist in basketball, said: “I chose to come to BMC because my old college was closing and I wanted to carry on learning, so I decided to look for a new college. I decided on BMC because the staff were really friendly and treated me like an adult.
“I really enjoyed meeting the students from Birch Wood and serving them.”
