"For me on a personal level it allows me to be me. A German national living and being accepted in the UK. Keeping some of my German way of thinking and my approach to life whilst embracing new opportunities and building friendships with people from all walks of life’s, nationalities, gender, ages and backgrounds.
It goes beyond simply tolerating people I am in contact with, to embracing and celebrating the rich diversity within each individual. Not judging people by the lack or the abundance of opportunities life has presented them with."
Inge Challinor, Stockport Council, Stockport, UK.
